Testo Getting Over Losing You

Testo Getting Over Losing You

I had a feeling I'd run into you;
It had to happen, I just hoped not this soon.
All I wanted was to speak your name
And maybe not start breakin' down again.
I hoped you'd see me with somebody new
And think that I was fine,
But now it ain't no use there's nothing left to hide.
You said I'd get over it;
You said it only takes time.
That soon I'd be on my feet again
And over my cryin'.
I fought every memory;
I conquered a few.
But what I can't get over is getting over losing you

So much for being strong and nonchalant,
But you're the only girl I ever wanted.
And, if I ever tried to slow you down,
I was only tryin' to keep you safe and sound.
Someday you'll want someone to stand by you
And never let you down.
When that day comes darlin',
You'll know the hurt I've found

You said I'd get over it;
You said it only takes time.
That soon I'd be on my feet again
And over my cryin'.
I fought every memory;
I conquered a few.
But what I can't get over is getting over losing you

Don't turn away,
Darling I pray; stay with me now.
Stay with me now.
Don't throw away
Something we've paid so dearly for.

You said I'd get over it;
You said it only takes time.
That soon I'd be on my feet again
And over my cryin'.
I swear I fought every memory
I conquered a few
But what I can't get over is getting over losing you

No, what I can't get over, is getting over losin' you.
