Sara Bareilles - Gonna Get Over You (Demo Version) lyrics

Goodbye should be saying that to you by now
Shouldn't I?
Laying down a law that I live by
Well, maybe next time

I've got a thick tongue
Brimming with the words that go unsung
I simmer, then I burn for a someone
The wrong one
And I tell myself to let the story end
My heart will rest in someone else's hand
My 'why not me?' philosophy began and I say

Ooh, how'm I gonna get over you?
I'll be alright, just not tonight someday
Oh, I wish you'd want me to stay
I'll be alright, just not tonight someday

Maybe it's a vicious little word
That can slay me
Keep me when I'm hurting, you make me
Hang from your hands well, no more
I won't beg to buy a shot at your back door
If I'm aching at the thought of you
What for? It's not me anymore
And I'm not the girl that I intend to be
But, I dare you, darlin'
Just you wait and see
But this time, not for you, but just for me
I say

Ooh, how'm I gonna get over you?
I'll be alright, just not tonight someday
Oh, I wish you'd want me to stay
I'll be alright, just not tonight someday

Standing all alone down, oh no no
Standing you I
This time not for you, just for me i say

Ooh, how'm I gonna get over you?
I'll be alright, just not tonight someday
Oh, I wish you'd want me to stay
I'll be alright, just not tonight someday
