I Just Can't Get Over You (Getting Over Me)

(album: Linda On My Mind - 1975)

I just can't get over you getting over me.

You look lovelier tonight than I remember
It's been a long time but I've loved you constantly
I know the fire of love for me was getting dimmer
I just can't get over you getting over me.

You seem happy knowing it's finally over
I know I'll always need you desperately
But it's worth losing you just to know what loving you could be
I just can't get over you getting over me.

For a while there was a smile where once a tear had been
And for a time you let me hold you tenderly
I'll be surprised if late at night I forget you now and then
I just can't get over you getting over me.

You seem happy knowing it's finally over
I know I'll always need you desperately
But it's worth losing you just to know what loving you could be
I just can't get over you getting over me
