The Lover After Me   Album `affirmation` Lyrics

Here I go again, I promised myself I wouldn't think of you today  

       It's been seven months and counting  

       You've moved on  

       I still feel exactly the same  

       It's 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 can't move on  

  

       Ever since you've 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?  

       There's no love on these streets  

       I have given mine away to a world that didn't want it anyway  

       So this is my new freedom  

       It's funny I don't remember being chained  

       But nothing seems to make sense anymore  

       Without you I'm always twenty minutes late  

  

       Ever since you've 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 as time goes by so slowly  

       The nights are cold and lonely  

       I shouldn't be holding on  

       But I'm still holding on for you  

  

       Here I go again, I promised myself I wouldn't think of you today  

       But I'm standing at your doorway  

       I'm calling out your name because I can't move on  

  

       Ever since you've 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
