When You Don't Want Me Lyrics

Nina Gordon When You Don't Want Me

This is not a dream, I am not asleep
This is not a game I'm playing
Somewhere in between what's real and how it seems
I'm myself forgetting to speak

And it's good to be alone, and it's good to see what I've become
When you don't want me anymore

Everybody knows how the story goes
Summer fades away and you're leaving
Welcome to the world of your former favorite girl
September comes and washes her away

And it's good to be alone, and it's good to see what I've become
When you don't want me anymore
When you don't want me anymore

Love dies, everyone lies, you did your best and so did I
But everybody has to give up sometime
Young gods, alien gods, star by star we all must fall, yeah
Everybody has to burn up sometime

Young gods, alien gods, star by star we all must fall, yeah
Everybody has to burn up sometime

And it's good to be alone, and it's good to see what I've become
And it's good to be alone, and it's good to see what I've become
When you don't want me anymore
When you don't want me anymore
And you don't want me
