GETTING OVER YOU
Words and Music By Roger Marin and Fred Eaglesmith
Sam Says: After performing this song solo many times at my live performances, the opportunity finally arose to get my friend Linda Allen to take a lead vocal and sing it with me as a duet. I always had a feeling that the arrangement would work out great, and it did. I couldn't wait to record it for "Wanted Man".
It should be crying time again--this time I'm really gone
You took away my keys--didn't even say so long
It should be crying time again--but I wouldn't be so sure
You think you broke my heart but this time you're wrong
(Chorus)
I'm getting over getting over you--I'm through just getting through
It should be crying time again, but darlin' what's the use
I'm getting over getting over you--I've tried too hard to try
It should be crying time again, but you wasted all of mine
Last night I set my watch--but I wound it too tight
And this morning it had stopped--right at crying time
It should be crying time again--that's what everybody says
But darlin' you should know I threw that watch away
Repeat (Chorus)
