David Coverdale - Over Now lyrics

rate me

(coverdale/page)

You said you'd give me love

Instead you caused me pain

You made me curse an' slam the door

An' hang my head in shame

Butit's over nowit's over now

You talked to me of virtue

An' sang a song so sweet

Butall I know is I could smell the perfume of deceit

An' it's over nowit's over now

You told me of your innocence

An' I believed it all

Butyour best friend is your vanity

An' the mirror on the wall

It's over now...

I turned away from what I heard

An' everything I saw

Butnow I see the light of day

I release the dog of war

So whatcha gonna do when the truth pays you a call

How you gonna feelwhen you finally lose it all

How you gonna lookstanding up against the wall

Whatcha gonna dowhatcha gonna saywhen you feel the hammer fall

I'm gonna see you crawl

You took your pills an' washed them down

An' then you talked for hours

I tried to build a garden

Butyou trampled all the flowers

An' it's over now

Wanting thisneeding that

Always after more

Now that it's all over

I release the dog of war

I release the dog of war

So whatcha gonna do when the truth pays you a call

How you gonna lookstanding up against the wall

Whatcha gonna dowhatcha gonna say

When you feel the hammer fall

Whatcha gonna dowhatcha gonna saystanding up against the wall

So whatcha gonna dowhatcha gonna saymammawhen you feel the hammer fall

So whatcha gonna do?
