Its Over Now
Jeanette Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You heard me right
We can't make it good
And that is why
It's no use to try
You are in a way what
I expected
You see I can say that
I reflected
All the time
It's over now
The end is near
I wanna stop to
Be in love
But that surely comes as
No surprise
It's over now
I find my way
You gonna take your
Love someplace
That is what I'm reading
From your eyes
Empty is my heart
Gotta find a start
This world goes on
Now that you are gone
You are in a way what
I expected
You see I can say that
I reflected
All the time
It's over now
The end is near
I wanna stop to
Be in love
But that surely comes as
No surprise
It's over now
I find my way
You're gonna take your
Love someplace
That is what I'm reading
From your eyes
Oh, babe it's over now
It's over now
The end is near (the end is near)
You're gonna take you
Love someplace
That is what I'm reading




From your eyes
Ohh, yeahh, It's over now
