Lyrics
It's Over Now
© 2011 Lyrics & Music by Bob Bentley
Verse One:
I knew baby that it couldn't last
But I didn't think my world would change so fast
I wanted you for all those years
But now it's coming down to tears
I wished you'd never asked
Verse Two:
Everything little thing we've said and done
has been wiped out and over run, you know it too
Whatever love you used to feel
has disappeared and been replaced by something that's not real
Chorus:
Ooh it's over now
Ooh you know I love you anyhow
I still look at you and wonder how I could have been
so stupid as to ever stray
Now I just wonder baby why you ever gave me time of day?
Bridge:
I will be alone now
I cannot stay here
The situation
Is blindingly clear
Chorus:
Ooh it's over now
Ooh you know I love you anyhow
I still look at you and wonder how I let you down
I will regret it till the day I die
I used to have your trust, now I cannot look you in the eye
Verse Five:
Enough's been said to make me see
That all the things that fell apart are down to me
The things we shared are all past tense
I threw it all away - I didn't have the sense
Chorus
Ooh it's over now
Ooh you know I love you anyhow
I will never figure out just how I let you down
I will regret it till my dying day
I had everything I wanted then I threw it all away
