If you stepped back
|
and realized,
|
I'm sure that you'll see
|
that these words that were spoken eventually
|
will dwell in my conscience
|
til my dying day
|
oh what can I say
|
to change your perception,
|
want me by your side?
|
The fact that you moved on
|
makes me wanna cry.
|
If you open your door
|
I'll be there with arms wide,
|
Just begging and praying
|
for one more goodbye.
|
|
So I'll wait for you
|
even though you don't want me to.
|
Because I'm not over you.
|
I promise.
|
This word they call love
|
come push or to shove
|
I meant it and now I'm in tears, my love.
|
Oh my love, oh..
|
|
I keep telling myself that
|
it's not what it seems
|
and wish that you wouldn't
|
keep hounting my dreams
|
I'll shoot out of bed and
|
wake up in a sweat.
|
How could I forget?
|
I imagined the worst when
|
you were on the phone
|
as you sat there and told me
|
that you were alone.
|
I could see him, I know how
|
he makes you behave;
|
that this wasn't the girl
|
that I kissed on our date
|
|
But I'll wait for you
|
even though you don't want me to.
|
Because I'm not over you.
|
I promise.
|
This word they call love
|
come push or to shove
|
I meant it and now I'm in tears..
|
Because I'm not over you,
|
I promise.
|
You won't see this face
|
Show up at your place
|
although I'm in town
|
I'll stay here, my love.
|
Oh my love, my love.
|
Oh my love.
|
|
And I should know better,
|
give up while I can,
|
and prove to the world
|
that I'll be my own man.
|
You broke me and took me
|
along for the ride
|
and this pain that you've left me
|
should make me subside.
|
|
But I'm not over you
|
(I'm not over you,
|
I'm not over you,
|
I'm not over you)
|
I promise.
|
This word they call love
|
come push or to shove
|
(I wish I could do anything
|
to get you back)
|
I meant it and now
|
I'm in tears.
|
Because I'm not over you,
|
('cause I'm over)
|
I promise.
|
You won't see this face
|
show up at your place
|
(don't let me go)
|
Although I'm in town
|
I'll stay here.
|
'Cause I'm not over you.
|
I promise.
|
This word they call love
|
come push or to shove.
|
I meant it and now
|
I'm in tears.
|
My love.
