I tried hard to make you want me But we're not supposed to be And the truth will always haunt me Even though it set me free And my tears flow like the ocean As they floated in the breeze They were falling in slow motion And they brought me to my knees
You're haunting me, taunting me all in my brain Turn off the light and now all that remains Fills me with doubt And I'm shouting your name out loud Why do you wanna put me through the pain? I get the feeling I'll never escape I can't hide away from the shame of you
Tears on the ground, tears on my pillow You won't bring me down And I'll get over you These tears will get me through And I'll get over you
I'll get over you I'll get over you I'll get over you I'll get over you
When did you lose your emotion? When did you become so cruel? And if you want to cut me open Says a thousand words 'bout you And in time I know you'll leave me Like a distant memory I know love can be so easy If I start by loving me, oh
You're haunting me, taunting me all in my brain Turn off the light and now all that remains Fills me with doubt And I'm shouting your name out loud Why do you wanna put me through the pain? I get the feeling I'll never escape I can't hide away from the shame of you
Tears on the ground, tears on my pillow You won't bring me down And I'll get over you
I'll get over you I'll get over you I'll get over you
Tears on the ground, rain at my window The pain washes out And I'll get over you These tears will get me through And I'll get over you
I'll get over you I'll get over you I'll get over you I don't need you to call me tonight (I'll get over you) I don't need you to see if I'm alright (I'll get over you) You left me, so leave me, I'm fine I'll be here getting on with my life
Tears on the ground, tears on my pillow You won't bring me down Tears on the ground, rain at my window The pain washes out Tears on the ground, rain at my window The pain washes out And I'll get over you Oh yeah, I'll get over you
