Lyrics
I’m beginning to think, I’m goin’ crazy
I thought by now my heart would’ve changed
I am the one, who wrote you the letter
Said you’ll find someone and you’ll be ok
I was convinced, I meant what I said
I guess my heart and heads not on the same page
Cause every day when I awake
You can hear me calling your name
I’m still not over you, I know I said we’re through
Now what am I gonna do, I’m still not over you
I ran into a friend, who said she ran into you
At dinner with somebody new
She said, oh by the way, they’ve set a date
For Saturday the first day in June
I started to laugh, but I could’ve cried
It may take my heart a hundred years
Cause every night, when I close my eyes
I fall asleep calling your name
I’m still not over you, I know I said we’re through
Now what am I gonna do, I’m still not over you
I’m still not over you, I know I said we’re through
Now what am I gonna do, I’m still not over you
Now what am I gonna do, I’m still not over you
