Over You
Daughtry(도트리) Lyrics

Now that it's all said and done
Reflecting on the past now that the relationship is over

I can't believe you were the one
Surprised that the person who tore me down was the same person who built me up

To build me up and tear me down
To raise my hopes and then crush them

Like an old abandoned house
Like a structure that was once promising but now left empty

What you said when you left
The last words spoken before leaving

Just left me cold and out of breath
The words were shocking and took my breath away

I felt as if I was in way too deep
I realized I was too emotionally invested and vulnerable

Guess I let you get the best of me
Realizing that I gave too much of myself to the wrong person

Well, I never saw it coming
I didn't anticipate this outcome

I should have started running
I should have noticed the warning signs and left sooner

A long, long time ago!
Much earlier, when I still had the chance

And I never thought I'd doubt you
I never expected to question your intentions

I'm better off without you
My life is improved now that you're gone

More than you, more than you know
You didn't realize how much of a negative impact you had on me

I'm slowly getting closure
I'm working through my emotions and healing

I guess it's really over
Coming to terms with the fact that the relationship is truly done

I'm finally gettin' better
I'm starting to feel more like myself again

Now I'm picking up the pieces
Trying to move forward and put myself back together

From spending all of these years
Reflecting on the time I spent in the relationship

Putting my heart back together
Piecing together my emotions and recovering from the pain

Cause the day I thought I'd never get through, I got over you!
I never thought I would heal from the pain, but I finally did

You took a hammer to these walls
You broke down the emotional barriers that I had built up

Dragged the memories down the hall
Forced me to confront painful memories and emotions

Packed your bags, and walked away
Left abruptly and without warning

There was nothing I could say
I was powerless to change the situation

And when you slammed the front door shut
The finality of the situation was clear

A lot of others opened up
New opportunities and perspectives arose

So did my eyes, so I could see
I gained clarity and insight

That you never were the best for me
Realizing that I deserved better and that the person wasn't right for me

Putting my heart back together whoa
Continuing to heal and work through emotional pain

Cause I got over you, I got over you, I got over you
Finally moving on and putting the past behind me

The day I thought I'd never get through, I got over you!
Reiterating the fact that I never thought I would heal, but I finally did
