It's Over Now
Luther Vandross Lyrics

Something's goin' on, it's the middle of the night
I woke up in the middle of the night with my intuition telling me that something is not right.

I know what's going on girl, you ain't been treating me right
I am aware that you are not treating me as fairly as you should be.

And your sweet talking ain't enough
Your words of affection do not make up for your actions.

I know you're messing with at least two other guys
I am aware that you are being unfaithful and dating at least two other men.

You fooled me a long time but the kid is gettin' wise, yeah I am!
Although you may have fooled me for a while, I am no longer clueless, and I know what's going on.

Don't hug me, don't kiss me, don't love me down
I do not want any displays of affection from you.

Excuse me, but you see this love affair is
I have to break it to you, but our love affair is no longer valid.

(Over now) you did me bad
Our relationship is over, and you are the one who hurt me.

You treated me so bad
You did not treat me well or with respect.

I didn't know it when I walked into the house
When I arrived at the house, I was unaware of what was going on.

But you were on the telephone
I later discovered that you were on the phone.

That's when I heard you tell him to come over tonight
I overheard you telling someone to come over to the house later that night.

Said you were gonna be alone
You told them that you would be alone that night.

I heard you mention that I had some place to go
I overheard you saying that I had somewhere else to be.

And you helped me pack my things, but it's you whose got to go, yes it is
You helped me pack my things, but in reality, it is you who must leave.

You're busted! You must have fooled me for a while
I have caught you in the act, and I realize that you must have deceived me for a while.

But honey, as they say "hit the road"
As the saying goes, it's time for you to leave.

You can go now, keep your voice down
You may leave now, but please do not cause a scene.

There's no need to fuss and shout, no baby
There is no need for you to make a commotion.

Use the back door, I don't want no
Please exit from the back door so that we are not seen by any nosy neighbors.

Nosy neighbors to see you checkin' out
I do not want them to see that you are leaving.

Bye baby, so long, it's been oh wow!
I bid you farewell, and it was an interesting experience.

If you really loved me I wouldn't say it's
If you actually loved me, I would not have to say that it's over.

(Over now) it's all over baby
Our relationship is done, and it's over.

It's too late now
You had your chance, but now it's too late to fix things.
