J. J. Cale - Days Go By lyrics

Now that it's all said and done

I can't believe you were the one

To build me up and tear me down

Like an old abandoned house

What you said when you left

Just left me cold and out of breath

I felt as if I was in way to deep

Guess I let you get the best of meeee

(Chorus)

Well I never saw it coming

I should have started running

A long, long time agooo!

And I never thought I'd doubt you

I'm better off without you

More than you, more than you know

I'm slowly getting closure

I guess it's really over

I'm finally gettin' better

Now I'm picking up the pieces

From spending all of these years

Putting my heart back together

‘Cause the day I thought I'd never get through

I got over you!!!

You took a hammer to these walls

Dragged the memories down the hall

Packed your bags and walked away

There was nothing I could say,

And when you slammed the front door shut

A lot of other's opened up

So did my eyes so I could see

That you never were the best for meee

Well I never saw it coming

I should have started running

A long, long time agooo!

And I never thought I'd doubt you

I'm better off without you

More than you, more than you know

I'm slowly getting closure

I guess it's really over

I'm finally getting' better

Now I'm picking up the pieces

From spending all of these years

Putting my heart back together

‘Cause the day I thought I'd never get through

I got over you!!!

I never saw it coming

I should have started running

A long, long time agooo

And I never thought I'd doubt you

I'm better off without you

And I never saw it coming

I should have started running

I'm finally getting better

Now I'm picking up the pieces

From spending all of these years

Putting my heart back together

And I got over you!!!

And I got over you!!!

And I got over you!!!

The day I thought I'd never get through

I got over you…
