lyrics

Well I guess I should have told you sooner
Maybe about a year ago
But I kept it in and tried to grin and bear it
Hoping that the flame would grow

Instead it just became an ember
Stifled by the love we played
And I know it’s strange but I just can’t remember
Feeling any other way

I suppose back then we both felt lonely
If only for a while
Now it seems a marriage of convenience
Never was our style

It’s over
And it comes as no surprise
It’s over
As we both recognise

Well it looks as though I beat you to it
You were close to getting up the nerve
But I’m pretty sure one of us had to do it
It’s something that we both deserve

And tomorrow when we both feel better
And go our separate ways
We’ll raise a glass and have a laugh when they say
Perseverance pays

It’s over
And it comes as no surprise
It’s over
As we both recognise

It’s over
Pretending to be one
It’s over
Not fooling anyone

It’s over
This journey wasn’t planned
It’s over
Though it never quite began
