She's Got You
Echoes of Love Lost: She's Got You
Lyrics
I've got your picture
I've got a photograph of you
That you gave to me
That you presented to me
And it's signed with love
It's signed affectionately, reminiscent of the past
Just like it used to be
Similar to how things used to be
The only thing different
The only difference now
The only thing new
Is that someone else has taken your place
I've got your picture
I possess your image
She's got you
But emotionally, she has captured your essence
I've got the records
I have the music we enjoyed together
That we used to share
That we both cherished
And they still sound the same
And they evoke the same emotions
As when you were here
As they did when you were present
The only thing different
Yet, the sole disparity now
The only thing new
Is that someone else has your attention
I've got the records
I have the musical memories
She's got you
But she has taken the significance of those moments
I've got your memory
I retain thoughts of you
Or, has it got me
Or perhaps, they consume me entirely
I really don't know
I am uncertain
But I know, it won't let me be
But these memories persist relentlessly
I've got your class ring
I possess your token of commitment
That proved you cared
A symbol of your affection
And it still looks the same
It remains unchanged
As when you gave it dear
Just as it was when you bestowed it upon me
The only thing different
However, the solitary disparity now
The only thing new
Is someone else possesses your heart
I've got these little things
I hold onto these mementos
She's got you
But emotionally, she has replaced me in your life
I've got your memory
I retain memories of our time together
Or, has it got me
Or perhaps, they control my emotions
I really don't know
I am uncertain
But I know, it won't let me be
But these memories persist incessantly
I've got your class ring
I possess your token of commitment
That proved you cared
A symbol of your affection
And it still looks the same
It remains unchanged
As when you gave it dear
Just as it was when you bestowed it upon me
The only thing different
However, the solitary disparity now
The only thing new
Is someone else possesses your heart
I've got these little things
I hold onto these mementos
She's got you
But emotionally, she has replaced me in your life
