wishing weed

Jason Reeves

I picked a wishing weed beneath your mother's tree
And I asked it to bring you back to me
Then a dragonfly took it to the sky
And it rode on the wind until it caught your eye...

I'm never gonna get over you
Not 'cause I can't
'Cause I don't want to
I'm gonna get you back if it's the only thing I do
I'm never gonna get over you...

I took the secret path to where I saw you last
And a sparrow dropped a letter to me as it passed
It was a simple sketch of a heart in red
And it broke me when I opened it 'cause all it said was...

I'm never gonna get over you
Not 'cause I can't
'Cause I don't want to
You know it's true
That I'm gonna get you back if it's the only thing I do
I'm never gonna get over...

Of all the lovers found and lost and never seen again
You're the only one that's worth repeating through my head...

I'm never gonna get over you
Not 'cause I can't
'cause I don't want to
You know it's true
That I'm gonna get you back if it's the only thing I do
I'm never gonna get over you
I'm never gonna get over you...
