Jeff Buckley - I Know It's Over (originally by The Smiths) lyrics
[Jeff Buckley - I Know It's Over originally by The Smiths lyrics]
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 and over oh Mother
I can feel the soil falling over my head
See the sea wants to take me
The knife wants to slit (cut) 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 - and I
Know it's over - still I cling
I don't know where else I can
Go - over and over
I know it's over and 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
Then why are you on your own tonight?"
"And if you're so clever then why
Are you on your own tonight?"
"And if you're so very
Entertaining then why
Are you on your own tonight?"
"And if you're so very good looking
Then why do you sleep alone tonight?"
I know - 'cos tonight is just like any other
Night - that's why you're
On your own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms
While they're in each other's arms
It's so easy to laugh it's so
Easy to hate it takes
Strength to be gentle and kind
- over and over
It's so easy to laugh it's so
Easy to hate it takes
Guts to be gentle and kind - over and over
Love is natural and real - but not for
You my love not tonight my love
Love is natural and real - but not for
Such as you and I my love
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 and over oh Mother
I can feel the soil falling over my head
See the sea wants to take me
The knife wants to slit (cut) 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 - and I
Know it's over - still I cling
I don't know where else I can
Go - over and over
I know it's over and 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
Then why are you on your own tonight?"
"And if you're so clever then why
Are you on your own tonight?"
"And if you're so very
Entertaining then why
Are you on your own tonight?"
"And if you're so very good looking
Then why do you sleep alone tonight?"
I know - 'cos tonight is just like any other
Night - that's why you're
On your own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms
While they're in each other's arms
It's so easy to laugh it's so
Easy to hate it takes
Strength to be gentle and kind
- over and over
It's so easy to laugh it's so
Easy to hate it takes
Guts to be gentle and kind - over and over
Love is natural and real - but not for
You my love not tonight my love
Love is natural and real - but not for
Such as you and I my love
