It's Over - The Petersens (LIVE) - An Ellen, Katie & Matt Original

Details

Description

"It's Over" is quite possibly the easiest song Katie and Ellen ever composed together. Back in 2015, Ellen wrote the chorus in about five minutes and called Katie who then wrote all the verses that evening. Matt helped put the swing style music together and there ya have it!

►LYRICS - It's Over (an Ellen Haygood and Katie Petersen original)
How do I tell you it's over?
How can I convince you to move on?
How can I get you to see
That your last love won't be me?
That all that we once had is now gone?

Yes, it's true in the past that I loved you
But those tears that I've cried are no more
Please just try to understand
That you'll never be my man
My heart has gone away and closed the door

How do I tell you it's over?
How can I convince you to move on?
How can I get you to see
That your last love won't be me?
That all that we once had is now gone?

Now, please don't ask the things you could work on
Don't you see, dear, you've done nothing wrong?
I just came to let you know
That my answer's still a "no"
Your love for me has lasted far too long

How do I tell you it's over?
How can I convince you to move on?
How can I get you to see
That your last love won't be me?
That all that we once had is now gone?

Well, look right there, Sally Anne, she's a nice girl
And I've heard my mama say she's sweet on you
Well, I've tried my very best
Won't you please give me a rest?
Just go on now and find somebody new

How do I tell you it's over?
How can I convince you to move on?
How can I get you to see
That your last love won't be me?
That all that we once had is now gone?

Oh honey, how do I tell you it's over?
How can I convince you to move on?
How can I get you to see
That your last love won't be me?
That all that we once had is now gone?

How can I get you to see
That your last love won't be me?
And all we had once is now gone
