I Know It's Over lyrics

[Intro]

Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head

And as I climb into an empty bed, oh well, enough said

I know it's over still I cling, I don't know where else I can go

Over, over

Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head

[Verse 1]

You see the sea wants to take me, the knife wants to slit me

Do you think you can help me?

Sad veiled bride please be happy

Handsome groom give her room

Loud loutish lover treat her kindly though she needs you

More than she loves you

[Hook]

I know it's over, still I cling

I don't know where else I can go

Over, over

[Verse 2]

I know it's over

It never really began but in my heart it was so real

And she even spoke to me and said

"If you're so funny, why are you on your own tonight?"

"And if you're so clever, why are you on your own tonight?"

"And if you're so very entertaining, why are you on your own tonight?"

"And if you're so very good looking, why do you sleep alone tonight?"

I know, because tonight is just like any other night

That's why you're on your own tonight

With your triumphs and your charms

While they are in each other's arms
