Coverdale Page - Over Now lyrics

rate me

You said you'd give me love, instead you caused me pain<br />

You made me curse an' slam the door, an' hang my head in shame<br />

But it's over now, it's over now<br />

You talked to me of virtue, an' sang a song so sweet<br />

But all I know is I could smell the perfume of deceit<br />

An' it's over now, it's over now<br />

You told me of your innocence, an' I believed it all<br />

But your best friend is your vanity, an' the mirror on the wall<br />

It's over now<br />

I turned away from what I heard, an' everything I saw<br />

But now I see the light of day, I release the dog of war<br />

So whatcha gonna do when the truth pays you a call<br />

How you gonna feel, when you finally lose it all<br />

How you gonna look, standing up against the wall<br />

Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna say, when you feel the hammer fall<br />

I'm gonna see you crawl<br />

You took your pills an' washed them down, an' then you talked for hours<br />

I tried to build a garden, but you trampled all the flowers<br />

An' it's over now<br />

Wanting this, needing that, always after more<br />

Now that it's all over, I release the dog of war, I release the dog of war<br />

So whatcha gonna do when the truth pays you a call<br />

How you gonna look, standing up against the wall<br />

Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna say, when you feel the hammer fall<br />

Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna say, standing up against the wall<br />

So whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna say, when you feel the hammer fall<br />

So whatcha gonna do<br />
