"Never Ever Getting Rid Of Me" lyrics - SARA BAREILLES

I will never let you let me leave; I promise I'm not lyin'
Go ahead, ask anybody who has seen me tryin'
I'm not going
If it seems like I did, I'm probably waiting outside
Such a stubborn man, you'll likely never meet another
When we have our family dinner, you can ask my mother
She's the best
You'll learn all about her on our family history test

I'm gonna do this right
Show you I'm not moving
Wherever you go, I won't be far to follow
Oh, I'm gonna love you so
You'll learn what I already know
"I love you" means you're never ever ever getting rid of me

You can try
Oh, but I
"I love you" means you're never ever ever getting rid of me

I grew up an only child in a suburb of the city
Spent my days alone; my only friend was a stray kitty called Sardine
I thought it was hilarious to call a cat a kind of fish
She played hard to get, hissing while she scratched me
What she was trying to say was "Ogie, come and catch me"
I learned quickly
That perseverance stood between a cat and her new best friend: me!

Oh, I'm gonna do this right
Show you I'm not moving
Wherever you go, I won't be far to follow
Oh, I'm gonna love you so
You'll learn what I already know
"I love you" means you're never ever ever getting rid of me

You can try
Oh, but I
"I love you" means you're never ever ever getting rid of me
You can try
Oh, but I
"I love you" means you're never ever ever getting rid of me
