Still Not Over You
Mike Posner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never knew that everything was falling through
That after all these years I'd still be calling you
To try to sell you on the thought of coming back to me
Baby girl
Yea you were my first
But you've always been my favorite girl
So I think you should come over and be my latest girl
Latest girl
All I know
Is I still feel the same way that I felt
So long ago
And even though I **** other girls
Now I don't want them, so
We can pretend that were right back in 2000 yo, 2000 yo
Everybody knows I'm still not over you
Not over you
And every time I lose a girlfriend
I call you
Ya I call you
Walk with me
I made a few more beats since the last time you done talk to me
I got a few more connects in the game
But that's not all I need
Remember back in the day
You had a massive phone bill
From calling me
Why you stop calling me?
Remember babe
I wrote you all those love notes in 7th grade
I hope you threw those out when we went out separate ways
Cause I don't want to see them up for sale on ebay
Don't put them on ebay
Everybody knows I'm still not over you
Not over you
And every time I lose a girlfriend
I call you
Ya I call you
You were my first girl
So wont you be my last girl
Hey first girl
Wont you be my last girl
You were my first girl
So won't you be my last girl
Hey first girl
Won't you be my last girl
Everybody know I'm still not over you
Not over you
And every time I lose a girlfriend I call you
Ya I call you
I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through
That after all these years I'd still be calling you
