No More Seeing You Again by Melodie Yvonne
I don’t know what I want, but I know when I don’t want it
I’ve never been real good at make-believe, fake shit, and frontin’
I’ve never really been in love just know when someone wants me
And there’s really not too many to surprise or even stump me
I’m never really ever gonna know if we are over
All I really know is that I just can’t do this sober
And if I have to have something to numb away the pain
Then maybe it’s just time for no more seeing you again
I’ve never been the kind to be somewhere that I’m not wanted
Don’t want to be ignored, but also sick of being hunted
I don’t know what I want, but I’m quite sure that it’s not this
‘Cause the price is way too high for me to pay for just a kiss
I’m never really ever gonna know if we are over
All I really know is that I just can’t do this sober
And if I have to have something to numb away the pain
Then maybe it’s just time for no more seeing you again
I’m still not sure what falling is or maybe I’m just broken
Not sure if I’ve a heart left or a need to keep on hopin’
But maybe all I need is just to numb away the pain
So maybe it’s the time again for seeing you again
I’m never really ever gonna know if we are over
All I really know is that I just can’t do this sober
And if I have to have something to numb away the pain
Then maybe it’s just time for no more seeing you again
My friend, I guess it’s just the time for no more seeing you again
My dear, I guess it’s just the time for no more seeing you again
My love, I guess it’s just the time for no more seeing you again
