Gonna Get Over You

Song Title: Gonna Get Over You (Someday)
Artist: Sara Bareilles

Goodbye,
Should be sayin’ that to you by now, shouldn’t I?
Layin’ down the law that I live by
Well maybe next time

I’ve got a thick tongue
Brimming with the words that go unsung
A simmer then the burn for a someone
A wrong one..

And I tell myself to let the story end ohh
My heart will rest in someone else’s hand
My ‘why not me?’ philosophy began,
And I say..

Ooh, how’ I’m gonna get over you?
I’ll be alright, just not tonight
Someday, oh I wish you’d want me to stay
I’ll be alright, just not tonight, someday

Maybe,
Is a vicious little word that can slay me
Keep me when I’m hurting and make me
Hang from your hands

Well no more,
I won’t beg to buy a shot at your back door
If I make it at the thought of you, what for?
It’s not me anymore

And I’m not the girl that I intend to be
I dare you darling just you wait and see
But this time not for you but just for me
And I say..

Ooh, how’m I gonna get over you?
I’ll be alright, just not tonight
Someday, oh I wish you’d want me to stay
I’ll be alright, just not tonight, someday

Say it’s coming soon (someday) someday without you
All I can do is get me past the ghost of you
(wave) Wave goodbye to me, I won’t say I’m sorry
I’ll be alright once I find the other side of, someday

Ooh, how’m I gonna get over you?
I’ll be alright, just not tonight
Someday, oh I wish you’d want me to stay
I’ll be alright, just not tonight, someday
