"Not Over
You" by Gavin DeGraw
Jack- green
Nikki- red
Cole- purple
Dreams, that's where I have to go
To see your beautiful face anymore
I stare at a picture of you and listen to the
radio
Hope, hope there's a conversation
We both admit we had it good
But until then it's alienation, I know
That much is understood
And I realize
[Chorus:]
If you ask me how
I'm doing
I would say I'm doing just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for
two
And finally I'm forced to face the truth,
No matter what I say I'm not over you, not
over you
Damn,
damn girl, you do it well
And I thought you were innocent
Took this heart and put it through hell
But still you're magnificent
I, I'm a boomerang, doesn't matter how you
throw me
I turn around and I'm back in the game
Even better than the old me
But I'm not even close without you
[Chorus:]
If you ask me how I'm doing
I would say I'm doing just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for
two
And finally I'm forced to face the truth,
No matter what I say I'm not over you
And if
I had the chance to renew
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do
I could get back on the right track
But only if you'd be convinced
So until then...
[Chorus:]
If you ask me how I'm doing
I would say I'm doing just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for
two
And finally I'm forced to face the truth,
No matter what I say I'm not over you
Not over you
Not over you
Not over you

You" (the meaning) ********ETREME SPOILERS***** (hidden in brackets, highlight between them if you wish to read the spoilers)

JACK:
Dreams, that's
where I have to go Jack sees Nikki in dreams (keeps her alive)
To see your beautiful face anymore Jack is still
very much in love with Nikki
I stare at a picture of you and listen to the
radio (this is probably what Jack did with his time)
Hope, hope there's a conversation he hoped
she would come back
We both admit we had it good he thought
they had a great relationship
But until then it's alienation, I know Everyone
thinks Nikki was kidnapped…so he sent search parties out for her…everyone
thought he was crazy.
That much is understood
And I realize
[Chorus:]
If you ask me how I'm doing (literally)
I would say I'm doing just fine (he put up
a front)
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
(spend
time with her and pretend he wasn’t sitting in that English classroom everyday
just to be near her again)
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for
two
And finally I'm forced to face the truth,
No matter what I say I'm not over you, not
over you (he is still in love with Nikki)
COLE:
Damn, damn girl,
you do it well (leaving for 6 months before the Shades come…just ditching)
And I thought you were innocent thought
she was just a sweet girl who would beg to come with him and rule the
underworld
Took this heart and put it through hell (tried to
kill him….smash his guitar which she thought contained his heart…..”hell”…or “the
feed”)
But still you're magnificent she is
still young…not old and shriveled up.
I, I'm a boomerang, doesn't matter how you
throw me he keeps coming back after Nikki keeps telling him off
I turn around and I'm back in the game keeps
coming….(relentless!)
Even better than the old me he
comes with new plans each time to get
Nikki to give up.
But I'm not even close without you cant rule
the underworld without her
JACK
[Chorus:]
If you ask me how I'm doing
I would say I'm doing just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for
two
And finally I'm forced to face the truth,
No matter what I say I'm not over you
Nikki
And if I had the
chance to renew if I could go back
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do ANYTHING
I could get back on the right track back together
(because I never stopped loving you)
But only if you'd be convinced (literally)
So until then...
JACk
[Chorus:]
If you ask me how I'm doing
I would say I'm doing just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for
two
And finally I'm forced to face the truth,
No matter what I say I'm not over you
Not over you
Not over you (he's obviously not over Nikki....)
Not over you }
