| The congregation sang
|
| We knelt and prayed
|
| As we stood before God
|
| On that beautiful day
|
| The church bells rang
|
| And the champagne flowed
|
| As our friends gather 'round
|
| For the wedding photo
|
| But here we are barely five years on
|
| An' our whole world’s fallin' apart
|
| All the plans we had together
|
| Up in smoke and gone forever
|
| Poisoned by a lawyer’s letter
|
| It’s over
|
| I don’t want our kids to suffer
|
| Can we talk to one another?
|
| You were once my wife, my lover
|
| It’s over
|
| Rumours and whispers tear me apart
|
| But I know you better than that
|
| Inseparable were we
|
| With the breeze in our sails
|
| Now I feel a chill wind
|
| On the marriage that fell
|
| And our friends are divided
|
| They’ve taken their sides
|
| Now they’ll all sit back
|
| And watch the circus unwind
|
| I don’t stand here tryin' to focus the blame
|
| But I’m hurtin' deep down inside
|
| All the pain an' all the grievin'
|
| When did we stop believin'?
|
| Too late now to stop the bleedin'
|
| It’s over
|
| What’s the sense in pointin' fingers?
|
| Who’s the saint an' who’s the sinner?
|
| There ain’t gonna be a winner
|
| It’s over
|
| Oh, my dear, what happened to us?
|
| Tell me, where did it all go wrong?
|
| What’s the use in keep on fightin'?
|
| All the tears, all the cryin'
|
| Why do we keep denyin'?
|
| It’s over
|
| In all the time I thought I knew ya
|
| Don’t forget our children’s future
|
| I would do whatever suits ya
|
| Oh yeah!
|
| It’s over
|
| It’s over
|
| Yeah, it’s over |
