Songwriter
[edit]The songwriter Jennifer Kimball is linked to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_Kimball, but is this the same person? This song came out in 1983, but the Jennifer Kimball linked graduated from college in 1986. She wasn't very active before then either. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.233.71.137 (talk) 14:46, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
- I agree that it's unlikely to be the same Jennifer Kimball, so I've removed the link. —C.Fred (talk) 17:00, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
Synopsis of Lyrics
[edit]"The lyrics tells of a woman who *already* overcame the pain, misery, and shattered dreams her former lover gave to her, which suggests the title." This is not correct, because the lyrics is about a woman who *almost* overcame the pain. This is mentioned in the title and many places in the lyrics. I changed the wording from *already* to *almost*.
In fact, the whole song is about the difficult of getting over a prior relationship. Considering she still cares about his current activities, "almost over you" could simply be wishful thinking. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.233.71.137 (talk) 15:20, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
