Lyrics

I'm so glad that you're gone
Didn't think I would be
Didn't think I could live without you here with me
But, I finally got wise - now that I know the truth
But it took a long time baby for me to get over you

Kept on calling you up
Thinking you'd change your mind
But I should've know then that you were not that kind
Finally now I can see - time to start something new
But it took a long time baby for me to get over you

Break:
Well I'm sure that now I've told you I don't need you around,
You'll come running back to me trying to tie me down

But I won't let you in - and pretty soon you will see
It'll take a long time baby for you to get over me

Ending:
Just like it took a long time baby for me to get over you
Yeah, it took a long time baby for me to get over you
