For a while

Lost in day to day,
Turned another way
With a laugh, a kind hello
And some small talk with friends I know
I forget that I´m not over you for a while.
A wave, an easy grin,
A smile to put them in,
Got other lives to listen to
And some music that I have to do
I forget that I´m not over you for a while.
Days go by with no empty feeling,
Until I touch my hair and touch my skin
And remember you´re gone.
People say to me, "hey Nina do you need some company?
When you have some time to spend,
Drop around-you need your friends."
They forget that I´m not over you for a while,
They forget that I´m not over you for a while.
Turned another way
With a laugh, a kind hello
And some small talk with friends I know
I forget that I´m not over you for a while.
A wave, an easy grin,
A smile to put them in,
Got other lives to listen to
And some music that I have to do
I forget that I´m not over you for a while.
Days go by with no empty feeling,
Until I touch my hair and touch my skin
And remember you´re gone.
People say to me, "hey Nina do you need some company?
When you have some time to spend,
Drop around-you need your friends."
They forget that I´m not over you for a while,
They forget that I´m not over you for a while.
