lyrics

I thought I was your go-to guy
You’re headed off in your own direction this time
Was I ever part of your larger than life plans?
Or did you just wake up one morning and realize I was not your man

You only heard me as a side note
I didn’t make the cut for the symphony you wrote
I thought at least I’d be guaranteed a front row seat
Now I’m lined up at the box office and I’d be lucky with a nose bleed

It’s so hard to turn back once you’ve gotten so far
It’s so hard to have so little once you’ve had it all
I can feel your heart beat from a hundred miles away
Under your rhythmic spell I’ll fall
Oh yeah I’ll fall, Oh I’ll fall
I’ll fall again as fast as I can
Don’t you worry about me: It’s not the first time my heart’s been so broken
I’ll get over you one day, just probably not the day I’ve planned

I crossed my fingers. I made my wish. I tossed all I could afford into the ocean
I bet it all on you. I expected all or nothin’ at all. I got what I was due

It’s so hard to turn back once you’ve gotten so far
It’s so hard to have so little once you’ve had it all
I can feel your heart beat from a hundred miles away
Under your rhythmic spell I’ll fall
Oh yeah I’ll fall, Oh I’ll fall
I’ll fall again as fast as I can
Don’t you worry about me: It’s not the first time my heart’s been so broken
I’ll get over you one day, just probably not the day I’ve planned
I’ll get over you one day, just probably not the day I’ve planned
I’ll get over you someday, fast as I can.
