Lyrics

It's Over

[Verse 1]

I won't be here when you come home

I'm sorry if you don't understand, forgive me if you can

But I can see another road

And I ain't coming back

[Verse 2]

Don't look for me around this town

Cause I will be so far away you'll never find me anywhere

And I won't take no souvenirs, no perfume picture promises

Because it's over

And I ain't coming back

[Chorus]

You gave me everything

And now I'm breaking your heart

You know that I don't mean

To tear your world apart

[Verse 3]

I would never leave, if I thought you couldn't stand the pain

A letter in hall, is written on the wall

A letter with no words of love at all

Because it's over (because it's over)

And I ain't coming back

[Chorus]

And as I close the door

I know I'm breaking your heart

I should have loved you more

Instead I've torn your world apart

[Verse 4]

And as I walk into the lonely afternoon

I feel sad enough, I feel bad enough

And all the times when you are lonely where you are

Please don't hate me then, I just could not pretend

Oh, no

[Bridge]

Feel the tears

I can feel the tears

Running through the years

Tears, feel the tears

I can feel the tears

Running through the years

Tears, feel the tears

I can feel the tears

Running through the years

Tears, feel the tears

I can feel the tears

Running through the years
