I'm Not Over Lyrics
what a waste of time
the thought crossed my mind
but i never missed a beat
cant explain the who or what i was
trying to believe
what would you do
what would you do
do you know
i once had a grip on everything
it feels better to let go
i'm not over
i'm not over you just yet
can not hide it
you're not that easy to forget
i'm not over
never took the chance
could have jumped the fence
i was scared of my own two feet
could have crossed the line
it was black and white
no contrast to be seen
what would you do
what would you do
do you know
was it all a joke
never had control
i'm not better on my own
i'm not over
i'm not over you just get
can not hide it
you're not that easy to forget
i'm not over
what a waste of time
the thought crossed my mind
cant explian this thing or what i mean
im trying to let go
i'm not over
i'm not over you just get
can not hide it
you're not that easy to forget
i'm not over
i'm not over
i'm not over you just get
can not hide it
you're not that easy to forget
i'm not over
the thought crossed my mind
but i never missed a beat
cant explain the who or what i was
trying to believe
what would you do
what would you do
do you know
i once had a grip on everything
it feels better to let go
i'm not over you just yet
can not hide it
you're not that easy to forget
i'm not over
could have jumped the fence
i was scared of my own two feet
could have crossed the line
it was black and white
no contrast to be seen
what would you do
what would you do
do you know
was it all a joke
never had control
i'm not better on my own
i'm not over you just get
can not hide it
you're not that easy to forget
i'm not over
the thought crossed my mind
cant explian this thing or what i mean
im trying to let go
i'm not over you just get
can not hide it
you're not that easy to forget
i'm not over
i'm not over you just get
can not hide it
you're not that easy to forget
i'm not over

in my opinion, the guy is not over the girl. he clearly let her go and now he is contemplating about the fact that she is gone. parts of the song, is him talking about somewhat being tricked into being in love, "was it all a joke" he was afraid of falling, but he fell for her, and now she's gone and he's regretting it.
-first hand experience. my ex put this on page, a week after we split, and i was trying to figure out what he meant by it, and it's basically him regretting he let me go.

Ever thought you were doing the right thing letting that girl go, then come to realize it was a huge mistake? She's not that easy to forget...
I Think the singer has moved on to a relationship that he thinks he wants to be in, but he is not over the only girl he ever loved. He's not over her.

I'm over the relationship, not the lost friendship. You're not that easy to forget.

That sums up perfectly what this songs about, for me. Letting a girl go and realizing that she was the one who got away.
this song..has been stuck in my head for a while now. awesome song. personally, i think it's about a guy really digs a girl, but keeps it inside for so long, : never took the chance could have jumped the fence i was scared of my own two feet could have crossed the line it was black and white no contrast to be seen and now its too late to do anything. but anybody want to explain : what a waste of time the thought crossed my mind but i never missed a beat cant explain the who or what i was trying to believe ?
I think that the line means that he/she was in denial about their feelings truthfully, it's like the old saying "You don't know what you got til' it's gone"
When i first heard this song...I just loved it! Great lyrics and great beat! I think the guy liked the girl but was scared of taking chances.. but thats just my opinion.
i love this song :)
me too :)
me too :)
I agree with the people that say that it's about a guy who let a girl go, and then realized that he was the one missing out.
Between "You're not that easy to forget," "Cannot hide it," and the "It feels better to let go," which later turns to "I'm trying to let go," at the end of the song... It just seems like what makes the most sense.
naynay32 asked what these lines meant... what a waste of time..the thought crossed my mind..but i never missed a beat...cant explain the who or what i was trying to believe .....
He
s just second-guessing himself on how he spent his time pursuing this chik and now she is gone....Kinda like a "wow" moment...what the heck was i doing??? ...and acknowledging now, that while it was going on...maybe he fleetingly realized that it would end up being a waste of time....(the thought crossed my mind but i never missed a beat) ...he did it anyway...and now hes having a hard time explaining it (later on the lyrics say...what would you do???) Dazed and confused and wishing she were still there....
