I knew it was just a matter of time
Before I’d forget her.
Now whenever she crosses my mind,
I handle it better,
I don’t break down and cry anymore
Just because I’m alone.
And I don’t stay up late pacing the floor,
Just because she’s not home.
I guess I’ve finally gotten over her.
Now I think I can make it alone.
Because I’ve finally gotten over her.
I’ve got the courage to stand on my own.
I don’t wonder at all if she’s going to call
Because I’ve finally realized that she won’t.
I guess I’ve finally gotten over her.
I didn’t want to face the final act
With my old lover,
But I’ve accepted as a matter of fact
That it’s really over.
Now every time I see her there on the street
I simply turn away,
But if by chance someday we happen to meet,
I know what I can say.
I took it hard when she first told me goodbye
And that she was leaving.
You know, I had myself a damn good cry,
But I’ve finished grieving.
I think I’m ready now to go face the world
And make a brand new start.
I’m going to find myself a beautiful girl
And take a chance with my heart.
