I Know It's Over [the Smiths Cover] Lyrics - You And I - Jeff Buckley

Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head 

And as I climb into an empty bed, oh well, enough said 

I know it's over still I cling, I don't know where else I can go, over and over 

Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head 

You see the sea wants to take me, the knife wants to slit me 

Do you think you can help me 

Sad veiled bride please be happy, handsome groom give her room 

Loud loutish lover treat her kindly though she needs you 

More than she loves you 

I know it's over, still I cling 

I don't know where else I can go, over, over 

I know it's over and it never really began but in my heart it was so real 

And she even spoke to me and said 

If you're so funny, then why are you on your own tonight? 

And if you're so clever why are you on your own tonight? 

And if you're so very entertaining why are you on your own tonight? 

And if you're so very good looking, why do you sleep alone tonight? 

I know, 'cause tonight is just like any other night, that's why you're on your own tonight 

With your triumphs and your charms, while they're in each other's arms 

It's so easy to laugh it's so easy to hate it takes strength to be gentle 

And kind, over, over, over 

It's so easy to laugh it's so easy to hate it takes guts to be gentle 

And kind, over and over 

Love is natural and real, but not for you my love not tonight my love 

Love is natural and real, but not for such as you and I my love, oh mother 

I can feel the soil falling over my head 

Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head 

Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head, oh yes 

Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head 

Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head 

Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head 

Mother, I can feel
