Lyrics
Gravity
By Gary Skankey
I was a little mad
But, now I'm over that
When she left me it didn't really hurt that bad
Hey, I don't really care
Who she will meet out there
She thought she could find someone better anywhere
I'm good, I'm fine, just one question on my mind
Did gravity get stronger
Is that why it's takin' longer
To push off the covers, get up out of bed
Can't get my smile started
'Cause I'm way too heavy hearted
My bones feel like they're made of solid led
It can't be because she's gone
It must be because gravity got stronger
It's like I just don't miss
That fire when we kissed
Or the taste of Juicy Fruit on her cherry lips
Or the feeling of my chin
Gliding on her soft, soft skin
That day I held her close in that winter wind
I'm free, goodbye, still I can't figure why...
I was a little mad
But, now I'm over that
