Song Lyrics

I think I saw you on the subway
Riding my way home from work
Probably got yourself a new boyfriend
Honestly, I can't be sure

Oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why am I stuck on you?
Mm, mm
Oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why am I drunk on you?
Mm, oh

I guess it's gonna take me longer than I thought to get over you
I would have liked to hit the ground running but I fell into you
Wanted to call you but now it's overdue
It's gonna take me longer than I thought, oh, to get over you

Mm, to get over you
When it comes to us two
Oh, to get over you

You were a bruise that I forgot about
'Til I leaned on it again
And I keep running out of distractions, oh
And I keep running into your friends

Oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why am I stuck on you?
Mm, mm
Oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why am I drunk on you?
Mm, mm

I guess it's gonna take me longer than I thought to get over you
I would have liked to hit the ground running but I fell into you
Wanted to call you but now it's overdue
It's gonna take me longer than I thought, oh, to get over you

Mm, to get over you
When it comes to us two
Oh, to get over you

We should talk it over
Only if you want to
'Cause looking in the rearview
I still see you, babe
Don't you think about it
Don't you second-guess it
'Cause looking in the rearview
I still see you, babe

Now I think I'm gonna take the long way home
Said I think I'm gonna take the long way

'Cause it's gonna take me longer than I thought to get over you
I would have liked to hit the ground runnin'
Wanted to call you but now it's overdue
It's gonna take me longer than I thought, oh, to get over you

Mm, to get over you
When it comes to us two
Oh, to get over you

We should talk it over
Only if you want to
'Cause looking in the rearview
I still see you, babe
Don't you think about it
Don't you second-guess it
'Cause looking in the rearview
I still see you, babe

Now I think I'm gonna take the long way home
