The Lover After Me 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
