Lover After Me lyrics

Here I go again I promised myself I wouldnt think of you today

Its been seven months and counting

Youve moved on

I still feel exactly the same

Its just that everywhere I go all the buildings know your name

Like photographs and memories of love

Steel and granite reminders

The city calls your name and I cant move on



Ever since youve been gone

The lights go out the same

The only difference is

You call another name

To your love

To your lover now

To your love

The lover after me



Am I all alone in the universe

Theres no love on these streets

I have given mine away to a world that didnt want it anyway

So this is my new freedom

Its funny

I dont remember being chained

But nothing seems to make sense anymore

Without you Im always twenty minutes late



Ever since youve been gone

The lights go out the same

The only difference is

You call another name

To your love

To your lover now

To your love

The lover after me



And time goes by so slowly

The nights are cold and lonely

I shouldnt be holding on

But Im still holding on for you



Here I go again

I promised myself I wouldnt think of you today

But Im standing at your doorway

Im calling out your name because I cant move on



Ever since youve been gone

The lights go out the same

The only difference is

You call another name

To your love

To your lover now

To your love

The lover after me
