Can you tell me what it's all about now
There's a rumor spreading all over town
You'll never guess it or understand it, baby
Start living with a new idea

It's over - close the book
Over - off the hook
It's over - like a war in peace
It's over....

Oh I'm running from the guillotine
Carve my name in the hanging tree
Never thought that I was such a fool
But when it's over, baby
What can you do

It's over - you better believe it
It's over - nothing can change it
It's over - can't you see
It's over....

I was only seventeen and I loved you so
I never loved a girl the way I loved you, girl
I was only seventeen and I loved you so
I never loved a girl the way I loved you, girl

I'm heading for a dead-man's curve
Graveyard's on the next left turn
Never thought that I was such a fool
But when it's over, baby
What can you do

It's over - you'd better believe it
It's over - nothing can change it
It's over - can't you see
It's over....

I was only seventeen and I loved you so
I never loved a girl the way I loved you, girl
I was only seventeen and I loved you so
I never loved a girl the way I loved you, girl
Over...,it's all over now, over, over, now
It's all over, all over, all over.....
