I'M Not Over You

I'm not over you. My heart is still on the mend. But you've forgotten me, until you're lonely once again. I need someone new. Someone who cares only for me. But I get lonely too, and I can't hold your memory. I give in again. When you come knocking on my door. I know better than to think you're different than you were before. But I can't close my eyes 'Cause when I do your face I see. No, I'm not over you, and I can't hold your memory. I'm alone again. I swear this time will be the last. But next time you come around, I'll give in like in the past. I should know better now You've made it very plain to see. But I'm not over you, and I can't hold your memory.

Heartfelt words. Sometimes it takes us a while before we get the strength to say "no more". We all deserve better than to be used when someone gets bored...it can be difficult to walk away.
