After enjoying Roy Orbison's "Black and White Night" concert on TV, I imagined what it would be like to write a song that might fit within that set list. The next day this song emerged, and emerged rather easily truth be told. I couldn't find a male singer up to grade but changing the lyric to female perspective was easy, and my "go to girl" did a great job with the vocal.

My ruby red lips of sweet confection
Used to feel such anticipation
But ah baby don’t - don’t you worry none
‘Cause I’m over you – yeah I’m over you
So call me up no need to say you love me
Know you think that you have had enough of me
Been awhile since the last I spoke to you
Miss your smile you know that kinda makes me blue
But don’t – don’t you worry none
‘Cause I’m over you – yeah I’m over you
Thought we’d take a walk into the city
Find a place do some reminiscing
I’ll lend an ear, learn about your favorite plans
Know I’ll hear you will never be my man
But don’t – don’t you worry none
‘Cause I’m over you – yeah I’m over you
The promises we made are broken now - ooh
To think that yesterday I walked so proud
Ooh - what’s this life all about?
It keeps me a spinnin’ me ‘round
Baby I’m breakin’ on down - I think you showed me how
Who’s that girl? I know she won’t be good for you!
‘Cause in my world I can’t believe that we are through
Hand in hand I cry inside when I can see
The two of you jealous girl I’m hopelessly
But baby don’t – don’t you worry none
‘Cause baby I - I’m just a singin’ my song
Got to get over you – Get over you
My ruby red lips of sweet confection
Sweet kiss with such perfection
Yeah I’m over you – ooh ooh – I’m over you
Wanna feel – sweet anticipation – I’m over you
Why don’t you do some reflection? I’m over you …
Baby I’m over you
