Don't want to get over you 
I'm not here to forget you, I'm here to recall 
The things we used to say and do 
I don't want to get over you 
I don't want to get over you 

I haunt the same places we used to go 
Alone at a table for two 
I don't want to get over you 
I don't want to get over you 

They ought to give me the Wurlitzer prize 
For all the silver I led slide down the slot 
Playing those songs sung blue 
Help me remember you 
I don't want to get over you 

A fresh roll of quarters, same old song 
Missing you through and through 
I don't want to get over you 
I don't want to get over you 

I don't want to get over you 
I don't want to get over you
