It’s Over Now Lyrics

[Verse 1: Carl Wilson]
The flame of love we had has finally died
Can't take this emptiness it left inside
It's over now
And though I played the role, I lost my soul
It's still within your heart

[Chorus: Carl Wilson]
It's over now
It's over now
Shades of blue and purple haunt me

[Verse 2: Carl Wilson]
The noise outside my window carries on
Like distant bugles, love is very gone
It's over now
It took a part of me, the heart of me
To watch it fade away

[Chorus: Carl Wilson]
It's over now
It's over now
Shades of blue and purple haunt me

[Bridge: Marilyn Wilson]
Heaven
Heaven is far away
Angels no longer play
[Verse 3: Carl Wilson]
I need to take this fear and force it down
And just pretend that you are not around
It's over now
I'll put a Frank Sinatra album on
And cry my blues away

[Chorus: Carl Wilson]
It's over now
It's over now
Shades of blue and purple haunt me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
