midnightsunshine Music

almost over you

there was a song that, when i first heard it, perhaps some 20 odd years ago, that i thought was incredibly impactful in its tune and pathos.
and today i found it at HMV.

I saw an old friend of our’s today
She asked about you, i didn’t quite know what to say
heard youv’e been making the rounds ’round here
while I’ve been trying to make tears disapear

Chorus:
Now Im almost over you
I’ve almost shook these blues
so when you come back around
after painting the town
you’ll see im almost over you…

you’re such a sly one with a cold cold heart
maybe leavin came easy, but it tore me apart
time heals all wounds they say and I should know
coz it seems like forever,
but im letting you go

(chorus)

I can forgive you and soon I’ll forget all my shattered dreams
although you left me with nothing to show
but all misery

( chorus )

when you come back around, after painting the town,
you’ll see im almost over you
