about

the most mature break up song I've written to date.

trivia: you can't tell by looking at it, but I am feeding chickens in this photo. (they would be off to the left and a bit below where the pic got cropped.) I do not yet have a song about chickens. Maybe next year.

lyrics

Over You

Peace on earth, good will to all
Call me when the apple falls
Counting down the year to come
so much I have left undone

Maybe I'll write you a letter and say how I feel
Maybe the love that we shared was too fragile to steal
Maybe this ending allows us to start something new
Maybe it's time I got over you

Watch the night fall east to west
as the apple falls again
Every hour I face the truth
I'll find love with someone new

Maybe I'll write you a letter and thank you for this
Maybe forgive and forget will not end with a kiss
Maybe I'll empty the river that's holding me blue
and maybe soon I'll get over you

Life it comes in waves and roses, circles round and round
We don't always get to know exactly how we're lost and found
I thought I had given up on love right from the start
You took me home and I found my heart

So maybe this is a letter that I'll never send
Maybe the trunk of the tree will not break where it bends
Maybe the love of my life will be turning up soon
'cause I think I'm finally over you

Yeah, I think I'm finally over you
