When you look into his eyes Comes to you as no surprise It's always the same Every time he's out with you He tries to tell you what to do You don't need it that way Sometimes you think you're playing the fool He's running around breaking all the rules Somehow that don't seem fair There's got to be a better way You know what I'm trying to say 'Cause deep, deep down inside You're living in a life in total lies What did he ever do for you What's he trying to put you through I just don't understand You showed him love and tenderness Touched him with your sweet caress Now he's leaving you So what's the point in working it out Tell me what it's all about That's why I'm saying I hope you're with me I hope you're with me when it's over I hope you're with me I hope you're with me when it's over You won't be lonely You won't be lonely when it's over You won't be lonely (you) When it's over It's over, it's over, it's over It's over, it's over, it's over And in the morning when he's gone Please don't sing that sad, sad song I don't want to hear it Forget about him Let him go It won't hurt what he don't know What's he trying to say to you What's he trying to tell you He don't really care Face the truth and realize You don't need his alibi's No more I hope you're with me I hope you're with me when it's over I hope you're with me I hope you're with me when it's over You won't be lonely You won't be lonely when it's over You won't be lonely (you) When it's over It's over, it's over, it's over It's over, it's over, it's over
