[Intro]
(It's all over)

[Verse 1]
How can I tell her it's all over?
How can I say that I'm going away?
I'll break her heart, I'm sure
Yet I'll hurt mine much more
And I've got to explain that it's all over (It's all over now)
How do I tell her that I'm in love with you?
What words can I use to say you love me too
Without making her cry, am I a no good guy?
I've got to explain it's all over now (It's all over now)

[Chorus]
Should I start a false fight?
(No, no, that wouldn't do)
It wouldn't be right
(No, no, that wouldn't do)
Should I just run away?
(No, no, that wouldn't do)
I've got to find a way to say it's all over now (It's all over now)
(It's all over)

[Verse 2]
How can I tell her about the way we feel?
All the happiness we share, yet with her it's like a shield
That has been plunged into the ground, so wide I can't get around
But I've got to explain it's all over (It's all over now)

[Chorus]
Should I start a false fight?
(No, no, that wouldn't do)
It wouldn't be right
(No, no, that wouldn't do)
Should I just run away?
(No, no, that wouldn't do)
I've got to explain that it's all over now (It's all over now)
I've got to explain
(It's all over)
Darling let me explain
(It's all over)
I know it's gonna make you cry
(It's all over)
I don't wanna make you suffer no more, darling, not I
(It's all over)
