the story behind the song
Have you ever been totally sure you're over your ex - like, you've 110% moved on. Only to see them at a party a year later and realize "oh, shit...maybe I'm NOT over them..."? Me too. And that's what "Over You" is all about. You see, even though my ex slept around behind my back for years, I guess there will always be a part of me that still loves a part of him. After we broke up, he mostly stayed out of sight and out of mind. But, whenever I would see him again, I would start to miss what we had together (or at least what I thought we had). Luckily, enough time has passed since we parted ways that I can finally say with confidence "I'm over you".
lyrics
By Arthur Kody
Invited me out for a coffee. You had something to get off your chest. From the second you saw me, I knew you had more to confess. And you almost got me, cuz that day was already a mess. You were missing my body. And missing my body when it was undressed.
Last week I was dissin' your kissin'. Now I kinda want it. Can't put my finger on it. Cuz I only miss you when I'm with you. And it's kind of ironic. Cuz I was over you as soon as I met someone new. And I was over you until you came into view. Now I'm looking at you and I'm thinking all that shit you pulled doesn't matter now we're older. And that chip up on my shoulder melts like ice in eyes so blue. It's true - I was over you.
Never late to the party. You were already sipping on a drink. Not Goose or Bacardi. But water from the tap at the sink. I knew we had mutual friends, but I just didn't think that I'd see you again. It's been a year since we ended us and I thought I finally mended.
But, last year I was dissin' your kissin'. Now I kinda want it. Blame it on my gin and tonic. Cuz I only miss you when I'm with you. And it's kind of ironic. Cuz I was over you as soon as I met someone new. And I was over you until you came into view. Now I'm looking at you and I'm thinking all that shit you pulled doesn't matter now we're older. And that chip up on my shoulder melts like ice in eyes so blue. It's true - I was over you.
To be honest, I probably won't ever say that I'm over you all of the way. Cuz you were my first. And damnit it hurt. But we moved on. And now we're doing okay. And maybe one day, when I text you in May, "May the fourth be with you" and you say "and also with you", that's when I'll finally be able to say I'm over you.
Cuz I was over you as soon as I met someone new. And I was over you until you came into view. Now I'm looking at you and I'm thinking all that shit you pulled doesn't matter now we're older. And that chip up on my shoulder melts like ice in eyes so blue. It's true - I was over you. And now I'm over you.
