"Getting On In Spite Of You" lyrics

"Getting On In Spite Of You"

Getting on in spite of you
When the summer
Isn't all it's cracked up to be
Maybe I just try too hard
To make it easy
Make you think it's not your fault

But it's always mine
I'm out of time
I'm running out of time with you

'Cause if I had loved you
For a thousand days or more
Or I hadn't laid here
With this doubt creeping up my spine
Maybe we could help this

Somewhere in the back of my mind
To keep from falling all the time
I keep one last image of you
Apologies won't make you smart
But I guess it's different
'Cause you're the one who always changed

But it's never me
Why can't you see
That this time things may not be okay

'Cause if I had loved you
The way you loved me before
Or if you hadn't left me
With this doubt creeping up my spine
Maybe we could help this
