Well, hold it right there   You're going nowhere   Until I tell you that you can   It wasn't me that told you   I didn't love you, so you   Can just sit down and hold my hand   There's some explaining   I'm anticipating how you're   Gonna let me down easy   Do everything you can to please me      You better hold me awhile   'Til my eyes are dry   I think I have the right   But it may take me awhile   Till I get over you      Do you think it's easy   To just forget my feelings   And smile and turn the other cheek   'Cause you're not stimulated   And I was temporary   Until you found the girl you'd keep   Years ago I told you   If you wanted to go you could   Well, I've changed my mind   I didn't know you'd go I'm a little behind      Hold me awhile   'Til my eyes are dry   I think I have the right   But it may take me awhile   Till I get over you      Years ago I told you   If you wanted to go you could   Well, I've changed my mind   I didn't know you'd go I'm a little behind      Hold me awhile   'Til my eyes are dry   I think I have the right   But it may take me awhile   Till I get over, till I get over you   Till I get over you
