Over Now
Busted Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take a bow
Because we're over now
You were not
There for me
When I needed you
And honestly I think I love you more
If that's possible I think I love you more
Its over now
And I can't save you
Some things are better left un said
And all the promises
I made were so stupid
Maybe we'll be able to be friends?
If that's possible
Two days gone
I'm alright
But you can't sleep at night
What is it
You don't like
But I'm happy now
I was playing with your head
When I closed the door
I was kidding when I said I loved you more
Its over now
And I can't save you
Some things are better left un said
And all the promises
I made were so stupid
Maybe we'll be able to be friends?
If that's possible x2
If that's possible
If that's possible
If that's possible
It's over now

As the song progresses, the singer becomes more confident in their decision. They're happy now, and even though they were playing with the other person's head, they still care about them and want to be friends if possible.

song still hurt, even now, all these years later. Thanks for writing at the end, 'It'll never be over', I just would have loved a third album. xx
