When It's Over - Dan Seals

When it’s over, no one needs to tell you

You already know

When it’s over and the feeling’s gone

It begins to show

You can’t live in the past, so you must go on

But the need’s still there, so you’ve gotta be strong

When it’s over, really over, let go

When the love’s gone, why go on pretending

When you know it’s so?

It’s just an old song that you can’t revive

But it’s all you know

So like a child with a toy, you keep holding on

To a broken love you held on for so long

When it’s over, really over, let go

I’ve thought it out from within and without

And there’s just no doubt I still need you

I’ve looked at us from without and within

And we just can’t win, we’ve got to give in and let go

Let go

When it’s over, let go

You can’t live in the past, so you must go on

But the need’s still there, so you’ve gotta be strong

When it’s over, really over, let go
