Still Not Over You
Mathew V Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I feel me thinking to myself
Remember you'd keep me close
When I felt some electricity, I can feel it taking over me
You know that I'm so stubborn I won't say it to,
I won't say it to you, you know I won't say I want you now
And after all these years, I've been trying to find you
Don't tell me so, I need everything
Baby, hear me out darling
Just stay for one night we'll be alright baby
Got to be starting something
Time goes on and on darling
Although I'm older, still not over you
So tell me who's on your mind,
Now I'm gone and in the rearview mirror (yeah yeah yeah)
Is this the way you're spending time
Guess I'll help to make your vision clearer oh no
You know that I'm so stubborn I won't say it to,
I won't say it to you, you know I won't say I want you now
And after all these years, I've been trying to find you
I'm still not over you
You know that I'm so stubborn I won't say it to,
I won't say it to you, you know I won't say I want you now
And after all these years, I've been trying to find you
I'm still not over you
Don't tell me so, I need everything
Baby, hear me out darling
Just stay for one night we'll be alright baby
Got to be starting something
Time goes on and on darling
Although I'm older, still not over
You'd never know, you'd hit the road
I'm still not over you and if I hit replay
Could I make you stay
I'm still not over you
Ohh
Don't tell me so, I need everything
Baby, hear me out darling
Just stay for one night we'll be alright baby
Got to be starting something
Time goes on and on darling
Although I'm older, still not over
Don't tell me so, I need everything
Baby, hear me out darling
Just stay for one night we'll be alright baby
Got to be starting something
Time goes on and on darling
Although I'm older, still not over

Spend everyday all alone
I spend my days alone with no one to talk to
When I feel me thinking to myself
When I am lost in deep thoughts without anyone to share them with
Remember you'd keep me close
I long for the times when you were by my side, comforting me
When I felt some electricity, I can feel it taking over me
I remember vividly the moments when I felt a spark between us and it still affects me deeply
You know that I'm so stubborn I won't say it to, I won't say it to you, you know I won't say I want you now
I am too afraid to express my true feelings because of my stubbornness, but you know that I still have feelings for you
And after all these years, I've been trying to find you, I'm still not over you
Even though it has been years, I am still trying to find you, as I can't seem to move on from you
