Somewhere Over You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I rolled out of bed with my eyes on you
Admiring the sun on your face
You never looked better than the way you do
Your smile is always in place
Oh, but honey, I'm convinced it must be a sin
To wrap my whole heart round an eight-by-ten
So I'm closing this chapter and starting anew
Somewhere over you
I have found me a way to forget you at last
I've broken the chains holding you to my past
I'm burning your memories and starting my life anew
Somewhere over you
Today when that sun is going down
I'm gonna be far, far away
It's any old road to another town
And tonight in some roadside cafe
I'll be thinkin' 'bout you, baby, kickin' up your heels
But the first time since you I'm gonna know how it feels
I'll be tasting my freedom and loving it too
Somewhere over you
I have found me a way to forget you at last
I've broken the chains holding you to my past
I'm burning your memories and starting my life anew
Somewhere over you
I'm burning your memories and starting my life anew
Somewhere over you
I'm over you
