Lyrics
I'm Taking Care of Me
© 2009, 2021 Warren Hein
While having lunch today
A friend of mine brought up your name
I laughed I'm over you
That smile you hid behind
I thought I knew from other guys
This time it took too long to see
But I learned one thing from you
I'm taking care of me.
You promised we were lovers,
And then you found another
You broke my heart
All your lies
How'd I miss them in your eyes
I cried, but those tears washed me clean
If I learned one thing from you
I'm taking care of me
What a joke you tried that kiss
I turned my head and made you miss
I had my pride you looked so surprised
As I turned and walked away
That train's whistle seemed to say
Hang on girl you know you'll love again
And I love again...
Now when I hear your name
I shrug it off I'm not the same
I'm over you
Yes a painful lesson
But no expensive sessions
Just my own simple therapy
I learned one thing from you
I'm taking care of me
I learned one thing from you
I'm taking care of me
Yes I learned one thing from you
I'm taking care of me
