she got a hold of me
i tried so hard not to let it show but she
got something over me
that's just the way it goes
but she changes like the season
make me second guess
and that's the reason that i'm feeling
like i'm second best
but i was never gonna get it
so i might as well forget it
if that's how it's gonna be
---
she got used to me
she tried so hard not to let it show because she
never used to be
sometimes that's just the way she goes
the only thing she got to know was
what a fool i am
i didn't know it at the time but
now i understand
that i was never gonna get it
so i might as well forget it
if that's how it's gonna be
--
[Chorus]
and i see her every day
she's a million miles away
it was just like night and day
she's a million miles away
--
she's sick and tired of me
she tried so hard just to let it go but she
got every right to be
i know because she told me so
and she doesn't give a damn
about the shape i'm in
and who the hell was i to think
that i could break right in
'cause i was never gonna get it
so i might as well forget it
if that's how it's gonna be
--
[Chorus]
--
i see her every day
one million miles away
i wanna hide away
she's got a right to say
she's sick and tired of me
she's got every right to be
we never said goodbye 'cause she
can't stand the fuckin' sight of me
she got a hold of me
got something over me
she used to be all over me
now she's just over me
i'm never gonna get it
so i might as well forget it
if that's how it's gonna be
she got over me
