It's Over
Love's Last Plea: It's Over, But My Heart Clings On
Lyrics
There's a little note beside this empty bed
Expressing the presence of a note near an empty bed, possibly signaling a departure or end.
I hear the back door slam Rn' baby you're on your way
Noting the sound of the back door slamming, indicating someone leaving.
You know I cried a thousand times before you left
Acknowledging repeated sadness before the departure of a loved one.
You say that this is it
Stating that the departure is final.
But baby can't you wait
Expressing a desire for the departing person to wait before leaving.
You take your love and go far away
Describing the act of the person leaving with their love.
But I'll be missing your everyday
Expressing the speaker's ongoing feelings of missing the departed person.
Cause it's over
Declaring the end of the relationship.
And there's nothing I can do
Resignation and acceptance that there's nothing more to be done.
Yeah it's over
Reiterating the finality of the situation.
But I'm still in love with you
Despite the end, expressing enduring love for the departed person.
Over, over, over
Repeating the sense of finality and closure.
But I love you girl
Affirming love for the person despite the situation.
And I want you back again
Expressing a desire to reconcile and have the person back.
This house is lonely and cold without you here
Describing the emptiness in the house without the departed person.
I wish the pain inside my heart would disappear
Expressing a wish for the emotional pain to fade away.
I know that I was wrong to treat you like I did
Admitting wrongdoing in the past treatment of the departed person.
But don't you think our love deserves a second chance
Pleading for a second chance for their love.
When all the love is gone from your heart
Describing a situation where love has disappeared from the heart.
And everything we had falls apart
Acknowledging the dissolution of everything they once had.
Then it's over
Reiterating the finality of the relationship.
And there's nothing I can do
Acceptance that there is no remedy for the situation.
Yeah it's over
Repeating the acknowledgment that it's over.
But I'm still in love with you
Despite the end, the speaker remains in love with the departed person.
Over, over, over
Repeating the sense of closure and finality.
But I love you girl
Affirming love for the person even though the relationship has ended.
And I want you back again
Expressing a strong desire for the person to return.
Tears are falling from my eyes as I cry
Describing the emotional pain through tears and crying.
I only wish that you were here
Expressing a longing for the presence of the departed person.
If only you had told me
If only the departed person had communicated more.
If only I had known
Reflecting on what might have changed the outcome if known earlier.
Maybe you would still
Expressing a wish that the departed person could still be close.
Be sleeping in my arms
Imagining a scenario where the departed person is still present and sleeping in their arms.
Won't you let me know
Asking for communication and understanding from the departed person.
Won't you let it show
Urging the departed person to reveal their feelings.
Now it's over.
Final confirmation of the end of the relationship.
