Never Got Over You

Lyrics
The parking lot of your apartment

And my car's still there

I know, I know, I know, I know I dropped you off

My hands are frozen on the wheel

Tear-stained seatbelt buckled still
The tear-stained seatbelt indicates the singer's emotional turmoil.

Ten months feels like ten days or ten years
Time feels distorted, either passing quickly or dragging on for the singer.
Can't keep track of time

Every day getting closer and closer
Every day feels like it's getting closer, but the desired resolution remains elusive.
Just out of reach stuck in my mind

That I never got over you

I can't decide what kind of friend am I

Romantic notions placed on you
Unrealistic expectations or romantic ideals projected onto the listener.
Wish you would feel the way I do
