Sara Bareilles Ft. Ryan Tedder - Gonna Get Over You Lyrics

[sara bareilles]
goodbye
should be saying that to you by
now, shouldn't i?
laying down a law that i live by
well, maybe next time

i've got a thick tongue
brimming with the words that go unsung
i simmer then i burn for a someone
the wrong one

[ryan tedder]
and i tell myself to let the story end
that my heart will rest in someone else's hand
but my 'why not me?' philosophy began
and i said

[sara bareilles & ryan tedder]
ooh, how am i gonna get over you?
i'll be alright
just not tonight
but someday

oh, i wish you'd want me to stay
i'll be alright
just not tonight
but someday

[ryan tedder]
maybe
it's a vicious little word that can slay me
keep me where i'm hurting, you make me
hang from your hands

[sara bareilles]
but no more
i won't beg to buy a shot at your back door
if i'm aching at the thought of you, what for?

[ryan tedder]
that's not me anymore

[sara bareilles]
and i'm not the girl that i intend to be
but i dare you, darlin', just you wait and see

[ryan tedder]
but this time not for you, but just for me
i said

[sara bareilles & ryan tedder]
ooh, how am i gonna get over you?
i'll be alright
just not tonight
but someday

oh, i wish you'd want me to stay
i'll be alright
just not tonight
but someday

[sara bareilles]
say it's coming soon
someday without you
all i can do
is get me past the ghost of you

wave goodbye to me
i won't say i'm sorry
i'll be alright
once i find the other side of someday

[sara bareilles & ryan tedder]
ooh, how am i gonna get over you?
i'll be alright
just not tonight
but someday

oh, i wish you'd want me to stay
i'll be alright
just not tonight
but someday
