I Know It's Over (Demo)

I can feel the soil falling over my head

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

I know it's over – still I cling

I don't see what else I can do

Over

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

See, the sea wants to take me

The knife wants to 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 it's over – still I cling

I don't know where else I can go

Over, it's over, it's over, it's over

It's over, it's over, la la la la la la

I know it's over and it never really began

But in my heart it was so real

And you even spoke to me and said

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

And If you're so cleaver, then why are you on your own tonight?

If you're so very entertaining, then why are you on your own tonight?

If you're so very good-looking, why do you sleep alone tonight?

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"

It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate

It takes strength to be gentle and kind

Over, over, over, over

It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate

It takes guts to be gentle and kind

Over, over

Love is natural and real

But not for you, my love

Not tonight, my love

Love is natural and real

But not for you and I, my love

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

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

Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head

Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head

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

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

And, Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head, oh

Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
