Lyrics

OVER YOU

Over you
You’d think by now I could say
I’m over you
But my heart stops
A room full of friends
And everything ends
The moment
You smile at me

Over you
Should be so easy to say
I’m over you
But I can’t breathe
As you cross the room
And I fear that soon
I’ll find out
You’re over me

So perfect together
Friends said
Obvious from the start
Crazy to break up
Rumors
So miserable apart

Over you
You stand so close I could fall
All over you
And slip away
Your touch stirs so deep
The precipice steep
Will we go over
Again

Over you
You stand so close I could fall
All over you
And slip away
Your touch stirs so deep
The precipice steep
Is it over
Is over once more over
Do we dare let love take over
Again
