The Story:

The hardest thing about breaking up is trying not to remember.

I'M OVER YOU
©Rob Russell Davies 2002

Your Picture frame is turned to stare at the wall
But not thrown away
Your old CD's that used to play through the night
Now lie silently

And all the friends we shared
And everyone who cared
Have their words left on my unheard answer phone
But still I hide the pain
When someone says your name
'Cause I'm trying to believe it
I'm trying hard to prove...

CHORUS:
I'm over you...
I must be over you
But then I see you walk and hear you talk
And know it can't be true
Your memory stays to haunt me
Won't you leave me here alone
So baby think it through
And help me over you...
(I'm over you)

I'll pack your case and leave it close to the door
It seems the easiest place
I'll hear your key and as you turn on the light
Will you look 'round at me?...

'Cause I want to ask you why
We never said goodbye
And I need to find a reason why you're gone
If you could lend a hand
And help me understand
Make it easy to forget you
I'm trying hard to prove...

Repeat: CHORUS

LAST CHORUS:
I'm over you...
I must be over you
But then I see you walk and hear you talk
And know it can't be true
Your memory stays to haunt me
Won't you leave me here alone
So baby think it through
And help me over you...
(I'm over you)

So baby think it through
And help me over you...
(I'm over you)
