You can tell her hello
You can tell her goodbye
You can sing her a song
You can tell her a lie
You can tell her she'll probably understand when she's older
After it's over, it's over
Tell her I haven't been lonely and cold
And since she's been gone I've been fine on my own
You can tell her she won't have to look back over her shoulder
'cause after it's over, it's over
Now, she's got so much to do
She's got nothing to say
Now there's nothing to lose
Cause now it's too late
and after it's over, it's over.
Tell her I'm done writing songs about her
This is the last one she's likely to hear
How I wish I could've been the one who had told her
After it's over, it's over
After it's over, it's over
You can tell her goodbye
You can sing her a song
You can tell her a lie
You can tell her she'll probably understand when she's older
After it's over, it's over
Tell her I haven't been lonely and cold
And since she's been gone I've been fine on my own
You can tell her she won't have to look back over her shoulder
'cause after it's over, it's over
Now, she's got so much to do
She's got nothing to say
Now there's nothing to lose
Cause now it's too late
and after it's over, it's over.
Tell her I'm done writing songs about her
This is the last one she's likely to hear
How I wish I could've been the one who had told her
After it's over, it's over
After it's over, it's over
