Over You
Cashew Chemists Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know it's true, now I don't have a home
'Cause you took it away, when you told me to leave
So I picked up my bags, and set off for the sun
You took off with him, and went on the run
As if I never knew what was going on
Like before, I've changed my mind
And I got over you
Now I'm in love with the world,
But not through the eyes of a pretty girl
And 'till I see you again I won't miss you, anymore
So this is how it goes, if you ever choose to
Stick around, I know, I ain't waiting for you
I sold this house we built for two
Yeah I don't mind anymore that you ain't
Like before, I've changed my mind
And I'm leaving this behind
Now I'm sure,
That I got over you
Yeah I don't mind anymore that you ain't
Like before, I've changed my mind
And I'm leaving this behind
And Now I'm sure,
That I'll be getting over you
The lyrics of Cashew Chemists’s song “Over You” are about moving on from a past relationship. The singer of the song used to dream of their former partner, as they thought it would make them feel less alone. But when they were told to leave their home, they were forced to pick up and move on. The former partner left with someone else and the singer was left feeling like they never really knew what was going on. However, as time moves on, the singer finds themselves in love with the world and sees beauty in things outside of their previous relationship, not just through the eyes of a pretty girl. They realize that they don't miss their former partner and are okay with parting ways. They have sold the house they built for two and have moved on mentally and physically. The chorus repeats that the singer doesn't mind anymore that their former partner isn’t the same person they were before, and that they have changed their mind, ultimately getting over the hurt and moving on.
Overall, "Over You" seems to be about acceptance and moving on. The lyrics convey the feeling of growing when a relationship ends, rather than wallowing in hurt, and beginning to see beauty in what surrounds the person. It's ultimately a song about letting go and being okay with not being with someone anymore.
