One thing 'bout this heart of mine All my hurts gonna mend in time It don't leave no scars behind I'll get over you I'll find me a guy one day Who's not scared to give his heart away When I do, it's safe to say That I'll get over you [Chorus] I'll get over you I'll get through, and when I do I'll be good as new When I get over you From now on, I think I'll lay low I'll talk fast but I'll move slow You taught me all I need to know 'Bout gettin' over you Sometimes think I love you still Wonder if I always will But I know it's just until I get over you [Chorus] Sometimes think I love you still Wonder if I always will Love for you's so hard to kill But I'll get over you [Chorus]
