Lyrics
I bought that big candle
Because it smelled like your cologne
I'm still getting calls
For you on the landline phone
I loved him
And he loved me
We promised over here that's how it would stay
Will you tell him for me
No matter how mad I get
I never wanted him to go away
Over here
You kinda get what you got
Over here if you love him
That's a lot
Over here
You kinda get what you got
Over here
I found out
Maybe not
People often ask me
They want to know how I am
Mostly I just don't know
Gets to be a problem
I loved him
And he loved me
And we promised over here that's how it would stay
Will you tell him for me
No matter how mad I get
I never wanted him to go away
Over here
You kinda get what you got
Over here If you love him
That's a lot
Over here
You kinda get what you got
Over here
I found out
Maybe not
Like the birthday wishes you wish you'd got
Like the pincushion I feel like a lot
Oh such a small town & I did not know it
Now I'm running behind the car trying not to show it
Do you think he misses me
Do you think he knows
I put the candle next to me
Where he'd go
Over here
You kinda get what you got
Over here
If you love him
That's a lot
Over here
You kinda get what you got
Over here
I found out
Maybe not
Over here
I bought that big candle..
Cause it smelled like your cologne
Over here
