Over You - T-Bone Burnett

Oh this death

Moment by moment

Darker and darker

Down and down

I feel your cold breath

I feel your cold breath

We’ve been going back and forth for a long time

We often did the right thing at the wrong time

We have hurt the ones that we love the most

Till I wonder did we ever get that close

I’ve been getting over you since the day we met

It might have been as simple as the way we met

Must we live in anger and in shame

Why must we always try to place the blame

From fear to fear

From madness to madness

Everything here has been hidden and guarded

From tear to tear

From address to address

I’m on borrowed time and I’m lost and discarded

I can’t decipher the questions you ask

I wouldn’t blame you for taking me to task

It’s hard to move freely in the cubist thing we did

Fractured and slanted ellipse as pyramid

And I’m grateful to you for every hard thing you’ve done

I’ll never replace you next to you there is no one
