Lyrics

Somebody Tell My Heart It's Over
Terence Gardner © 2006

I've got to get on and move forward
Keep my mind on the road up ahead
My eyes are stuck in the rear view mirror
Make believing we ain't feeling regret
I've said it over and over love made her choice
Sometimes you can't hear your own voice

Somebody tell my heart its over
Been waiting online
Just biding its time
Hoping for that four leaf clover
But luck has run dry
Somebody else try
To tell my heart it's over

Every day has its valleys and peaks
Emotions with oceans of depth
Hours into days into weeks
All cuz this heart can't forget
I've tried using logic for the pain
And the answer still comes back the same

Nobody told my heart its over
I tried to deceive
Still it believes
Tomorrow will bring us back closer.
My mind needs a break
Wondering what it?ll take
To let my heart no it?s over

If she phoned the line, tellin? she changed her mind
I know I should turn deaf to her call
But if she?n me, ain?t worth believin? in
Might as well believe in nothing at all

So this other thinks I done moved on
But I know what she ain?t figured yet
Cuz when I hold her I still feel alone
If you ask my heart, we?ve never met

So don?t tell my heart it?s over,
It?s waiting online biding it?s time
Searching for that 4leaf clover,
No matter what it takes no matter how it aches
Don?t tell my heart it?s over
