You All over Me (By Ear) - Melissa Black

Once the last drop of rain

Has dried off the pavement

Shouldn't I find a stain

But I never do

The way the tires turn stones

On old County roads

They leave 'em muddy underneath

Reminds me of you

You find graffiti on the walls

Of old bathroom stalls

You know you can scratch it right off

It's how it used to be

But like the dollar in your pocket

Thats been spent and traded in

You can't change where it's been

Reminds me of me

I lived

And I learned

Had you

Got burned

Held out

And held on

God knows

Too long

And wasted my time

Lost tears

Swore that I'd get out of here

But no amount of freedom gets you clean

I've still got you all over me

Best and worst day of June

Was the one that I met you

With your hands in your pockets

And your 'don't you wish you had me' grin

I did so I smiled

And I melted like a child

Now every breath of air I breathe

Reminds me of that then

And I lived

And I learned

Had you

Got burned

Held out

And held on

God knows

Too long

And wasted my time

Lost tears

Swore that I'd get out of here

But no amount of freedom gets you clean

I've still got you all over me

I lived

And I learned

And found out what it was to turn around

And see that we

Were never really meant to be

So I lied

And I cried

And I watched a part of myself die

No amount of freedom gets you clean

I've still got you all over me

I've still got you all over me
