You hear me knocking, say I can't come in...so I stand outside your door,
I stayed up late thinking 'bout the things we said,
Why can't we call a truce in our little war?
Don't say that it's over, (don't say that it's over)
Don't tell me no lies,
Don't say that it's over, (over)
I put down my foolish pride.
In my heart I hold a picture of you, yeah, it carries me through the times,
Now it seems like speaking too soon got the best of me,
Yeah, the last word always had to be mine.
If I ever once acted out on what I believe I wouldn't be sitting here alone, with my heart on my sleeve,
If I could change the way I did the things I've done before, I'd change the day I let you walk out that door,
Don't say it.
Don't say that it's over, (don't say that it's over)
Don't tell me no lies,
Don't say that it's over, (it's all over)
I put down my foolish pride.
Oh.
Since you've been gone I've had a little change in my heart,
Oh, something tells me things I should've known from the start.
Don't say it's over,
Hey,
Come on, now.
Hey, the letter that you wrote me made me sit up and think,
Yeah, your words just spin around in my head,
I just lay in bed thinking 'bout the days gone by, wishing we could try again.
Don't say that it's over, (don't say that it's over)
Don't tell me no lies,
Don't say that it's over, (over)
I put down my foolish pride.
Well, it's the pride that comes before the fall that done me in,
I don't need a mirror to see the shape my heart is in,
You never miss your water 'til your well runs dry,
Won't you give me one more chance?
I put down my foolish pride,
I put down my foolish pride.
Don't say...
Don't say...
Don't say it's over,
No, it's never too late,
I guess I'll go on home now, (don't say...don't say that it's...)
It's late, (don't say...don't say that it's...)
There'll be tomorrow, (don't say...don't say that it's...)
I'll wait, (don't say...don't say that it's...)
I guess not, (don't say...don't say that it's...)
Over, over, over, over, over...(don't say...don't say that it's...)
