It's Over
Level 42
Lyrics: R. GOULD
Level42 Music / Chappel Music ltd. / Island Visual Arts
I won't be here when you come home
I'm sorry if you don't understand, forgive me if you can
But I can see another road
And I ain't coming back
Don't look for me around this town.
'Cos I will be so far away, you'll never find me anywhere
An I won't take no souvenirs
No perfumed picture promises
Because it's over
And I ain't comming back
You gave me everything
And now I'm breaking your heart
You know that I don't mean
To tear your world apart
I would never leave if I thought you couldn't stand the pain
A letter in the hall
Is written on the wall
A letter with no words of love at all
Because it's over
And I ain't comming back
And as I close the door
I know I'm breaking your heart
I should have loved you more
Instead I've torn your world apart
And as I walk into the lonely afternoon
I feel bad enough
I feel sad enough
And all the times when you are lonely where you are
Please don't hate me then
I just could not pretend oh no
Feel the tears
I can feel the tears
Running thru the years

not sure about the family problem but one's interpretation can see many
things in songs.
it's seems like a normal hard break love song. when you discover you
don't love that person anymore and you know it's time to take your own
road and leave them behind. as a songwriter, these images, of walking
away, a letter where i tell you that i don't love you anymore. these types
of imagery or generally literal in there meaning of this proclamation that
the relationship is done....:)

What do you think these lyrics mean? I think that it is a family problem that is being abstractly put into song. People watching talk shows on mute, trying to listen to what else is going on. What do you think?
