Don’t say you’re not sure we’ll always be lovers
We walk down the beach
I won’t say you don’t come, there’s a live stream of conscience in my mind
Hooking me back to bed again
I’m lost in a dream
Is love just a feeling?
That’s just me, getting over you, getting over me
Looking at your smile
Don’t get me wrong, I want you to be happy
God, it makes me blue, there’s nothing left to do
That’s just me when it comes to you
Just me when it comes to you
That’s just me when it comes to you
That’s just me when it comes to you
You took me to school, what an education
It turned out to be
I can’t be the apple of your eye
Say what it takes getting by to welcome me back to bed again
I’m lost in a dream
Is love just a feeling?
That’s just me, getting over you, getting over me
Looking at your smile
Don’t get me wrong, I want you to be happy
God, it makes me blue
There’s nothing left to do
That’s just me when it comes to you
That’s just me when it comes to you
Does your body ache?
I’m erased
Just don’t read my face
I’m okay
That’s just me, getting over you, getting over me
Looking at your smile
Don’t get me wrong, I want you to be happy
But God, it makes me blue
There’s nothing left to give
That’s just me when it comes to you
Getting over you, getting over me
Looking at your smile, don’t get me wrong
I want you to be happy
But God, it makes me blue
There’s nothing left to do
That’s just me when it comes to you
That’s just me when it comes to you
That’s just me when it comes to you
