Lyrics
There's a place in your heart where he's always been
A place down deep in your soul
For so long now you feel empty inside
It's all over but goodbye
It's all over but your crying good-bye
It's all over but good-bye
You can't face him so you try to hide it
It's all over but good-bye
You think about all the years you've been together
You've never been untrue
You make a wish on every star in the sky
It's all over but good-bye
It's all over but your crying good-bye
It's all over but good-bye
You can't face him so you try to hide it
It's all over but good-bye
You can't remember the last time he held you
Or whispered in your ear
You like to think he might still love you
It's all over but good-bye
It's all over but your crying good-bye
It's all over but good-bye
You can't face him so you try to hide it
It's all over but good-bye
It's all over but your crying good-bye
It's all over but good
You can't face him so you try to hide
It's all over girl kiss him good-bye
