Analysis of Over
Please don't let it be over.
Please don't let it be over.
If you were a drug,
I'd never want to be sober.
There's something about you
That I can't resist.
Sometimes I wish
It wouldn't exist.
I can't forget
The times we had.
It's so sad
It went all bad.
I hope we can discover
What we had can be recovered.
I just want my lover
To open the shutters
And let me in,
So we can pretend,
Nothing was ever wrong.
It's been way too long.
