Sara Bareilles
"Gonna Get Over You"

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

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

And I tell myself to let the story end
My heart will rest in someone else's hand
My 'why not me?' philosophy began
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

Maybe, it's 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'm achin' 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
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 without you
All I can do is get me past the ghost of you

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
