Tryin' To Get Over You - Bobby Womack

Every day

I try and play my part so well

But every time, I hide behind the lines

Oh, it never, never fails

Mmm-mm

Baby, baby

I’m just acting like I’m not affected by your leaving at all

When this curtain falls, stage is gone

Somehow I’m left standing on my own

(Oh baby) baby, (oh baby) baby, (oh baby) baby, (oh baby) baby

Would you be my roller, baby?

I’m still, I’m still (I'm still)

I’m tryin' to get over you (tryin' to get over you)

Yes I am

The fact of the matter is

It seems to be the hardest thing for me to do

I’m tryin' to get over you (oh baby)

Just off Broadway

The girl went her way

And, oh, I went mine

My leading lady

Oh, she set the stage

But somehow she left it all behind

Mhmm

Baby, baby, how did I get this crazy, I don’t know

When the stage is gone

Somehow I have to face the truth

And every time I’m left standing on my own, sayin' these words

Woah (oh baby), woah (oh baby), oh

I’m still (I'm still tryin')

Tryin' to get over you, yes I am

Somehow

It seems to be the hardest thing for me to do

Woo

I wonder would y’all mind if I took out a little time to talk a while

'Cause I understand, I understand

That everybody needs and everybody wants

Someone to love in some shape, form, or fashion

But it seems to be so hard to walk away

Especially when you leave on your own

And you find yourself asking the question

«Did I do right?

Did I do right?

Did I do right?»

Oh mhmm, yeah, yeah

All I want you to to do is just take outta little time

Just to search your heart

(I'm still tryin' to get over you) and don’t be ashamed to stand up

And tell the world that you’ve been through some changes in your life

There’s some good livin' and a lot of sense

It seems to be the hardest thing to do

But I keep on tryin' (I'm still tryin' to)

Tryin' (I'm tryin' to get over you)

Yeah, baby

(It seems to be hardest thing to do)

You know it is

Fact, fact of the matter is

(I'm still tryin' to)

(I'm tryin' to get over you)
