02. It's Over
Jesse McCartney Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We've run out of words we've run out of time
We've run out of reasons, really why we together?
We both know it's over baby bottom line
It's best we don't even talk at all
Don't call me even if I should cross your mind
Hard enough, I don't need to hear your voice on my messages
Let's just call it quits it's probably better so if I'm not returning your calls it's cause
Cause I'm not coming back I'm closing the door
I used to be trippin' over missin' you but I'm not any more
I got the picture phone baby, your picture's gone
Couldn't stand to see your smile every time you dialed

Cause it's over girl you know it's over this time
So when you call I'm pressin' 7 don't wanna hear your messages messages
I'm tryna erase you from my mind
Cause it's over I swear girl it's over this time
So don't keep callin' leavin' messages don't wanna know where you been
Baby cause it's over

I still wake up every morning quarter to ten
Still eat my cereal right at the kitchen table
I can't even remember how long it's been
When your troubles stayed and occupied
Oh, ask about you whenever I come around
I do what I can not to put my business in the streets
Last thing I need is another episode keep conversations short and sweet because

Cause I'm not coming back I'm closing the door
I used to be trippin' over missin' you but I'm not any more
I got the picture phone baby, your picture's gone
Couldn't stand to see your smile every time you dialed

Cause it's over girl you know it's over this time
So when you call I'm pressin' 7 don't wanna hear your messages messages
I'm tryna erase you from my mind
Cause it's over I swear girl it's over this time
So don't keep callin' leavin' messages don't wanna know where you been
Baby cause it's over

You know that it's over when the burnin' and the yearnin' inside your heart ain't there anymore
And you know that you're through when
She don't do to you and move you like the way she moved you before
And you wanna pull her close, but your heart has froze you kiss her but her eyes don't close
Then she goes out of your heart forever and it hurts you but you know that it's better

Girl you know it's over
Girl you know it's over this time
So when you call I'm pressin' 7 don't wanna hear your messages messages
I'm tryna erase you from my mind
Cause it's over I swear girl it's over this time
So don't keep callin' leavin' messages don't wanna know where you been
Baby cause it's over
Cause it's over girl you know it's over this time
So when you call I'm pressin' 7 don't wanna hear your messages messages
I'm tryna erase you from my mind
Cause it's over I swear girl it's over this time




So don't be callin' leavin' messages don't wanna know where you been
Baby cause it's over
