Dying In Africa

Someone I loved turned me down
I didn't feel my head touch the ground.
Someone I loved said goodbye
I never knew someone could make me cry
like this.
And I, I won't get over you
even if they're dying in Africa.
And I, I can't get over you
even if they're crying in Africa.
And everything that you say,
It will be held against you now.
And everything that I did,
Yes, it depended on you.
It did.
Love feels so sweet when you're rejected,
even if they're dying in Africa.
And I, I can't get over you
even if they're crying in Africa.
Someone I loved turned me down
Roll with the punches
and come back down.
Love feels so sweet when you're rejected,
even if they're dying in Africa.
And I, I can't get over you
even if they're crying in Africa,
dying in Africa.
I never knew someone could make me cry
like this.
