Janis Ian - Getting Over You lyrics

Borrowed pens on dotted lines
Sign the past away
This is yours and that is mine
So the papers say

How can you move so quickly?
How can you heal so fast?
And what will I do with my mornings?
And what will I do with my nights?

Tell me what you see in her
That used to be in me
Why is it the simple truths
Are hardest to believe?

How can I start all over?
Knowing we'll just be friends
And what will I do with my mornings?
And what will I do with my nights?

You want answers that I can't give
You want words I don't know
Ask me when I'm through getting over you

After this day is over
How will my dreams go on?
And what will I do with my mornings?
Tell me, what will I do with my nights?

You want answers that I can't give
You want words I don't know
Ask me when I'm through getting over you
Ask me when I'm through getting over you
