Its Over Now
D. Lee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But it's all over now
You used to whisper little things to set me aglow
But it's all over now
I listened to you tell me little white lies
Never thought you meant to deceive
Whoever would have doubted those innocent eyes
Remember how I planned a little home by a stream
Where we'd spend every day
You must have thought me crazy when I painted that dream
'Cause you threw it away
I kinda wish that things would be different
Have a happy ending somehow
But I guess you only took me for a ride in the dark
And it's all over now
Remember how I planned a little home by a stream
Where we'd spend every day
You must have thought me crazy when I painted that dream
'Cause you threw it away
I kinda wish that things would be different
Have a happy ending somehow
But I guess you only took me for a ride in the dark
And it's all, it's all over now
In D. Lee's song "It's Over Now," the singer is reflecting on a past relationship that has ended. The opening lines convey how they used to cherish intimate moments with their partner in a dimly lit setting, but everything has come to an end. The chorus emphasizes that the singer recognizes that the person they were once with no longer has the same feelings for them, and that their love story has reached its conclusion.
As the song progresses, the lyrics delve into the deceptions that were hidden within the relationship. The singer mentions how they were fed whispered lies and compliments that made them feel like their love was reciprocated when in fact, it was not. An imagined future together was constructed, but the partner ultimately threw it away, leaving the singer feeling betrayed and used.
The final lines of the chorus express the singer's acceptance that the relationship was doomed from the beginning and that there is no chance of it being revived. It's a painful realization, but the singer has come to terms with it and is ready to move on.
The song captures the heartache of a relationship that has run its course, expressing the pain of betrayal and the desire for the relationship to have had a different outcome, and ultimately ending in a sense of acceptance and closure.
