Still by Melodie Yvonne

I still think about you all of the time
You bounce back and forth in the rooms in my mind
And I don’t know why or if you’re there to stay
But I’m so sick of cryin’ ‘bout you every day

I’ll never know why it’s deeper for me
Don’t know why I thought you really liked me
Don’t know why I thought our souls were on fire
Guess I want you so much that I’s in denial

I know you moved on but it’s hurtin’ me still
Am I just hung up or are my feelings real?
Wish I had known you’d be runnin’ so quickly
Wish I had known you’s the last I’d have in me

Wonderin’ if you know the damage you done
when you was just tryin’ to have you some fun
And I don’t know why I thought I deserved better
Don’t know why I thought you’d pick me and forget her

I still think about you all of the time
You still occupy all these rooms in my mind
And I don’t know why or if I can evict you
But I’m scared I’m cursed and I’ll never forget you
