You All Over Me

The speaker looks back on a relationship that has ended but still affects her. At first, she seems to hope that time and distance will erase its traces. She then remembers the attraction and excitement of meeting the other person, before describing the hurt and the realization that they were not right for each other. The emotional movement is from memory and longing toward clearer understanding, though not complete release.

Rain drying from pavement suggests that visible signs can disappear, while muddy ground beneath the road suggests that feelings may remain hidden. The comparison to a dollar that has been spent and passed between people implies that past experiences cannot simply be undone. “Got burned” is an idiom meaning she was hurt, and “no amount of freedom gets you clean” suggests that leaving the relationship has not removed its emotional influence.

“Still got you all over me” is probably not literal: it presents the former lover as lingering in her memories and feelings. The song holds both affection and regret; the June meeting is described as both the best and worst day, because it brought happiness as well as later pain. The speaker says they were never meant to be, but that does not make the connection feel unimportant. Her memories may be painful, cherished, or both.
