Some people live their dreams
Some people close their eyes
Some people's destiny
Passes by

There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That's how our love must be
Don't ask why

It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

Remembering times gone by
Promises we once made
What are the reasons why
Nothing stays the same

There were the nights holding you close
Someday I'll try to forget them

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating (anticipating)
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

As soon as my heart stops breakin' (as soon as my heart stops breakin')
Anticipating (anticipating)
Someday I'll be over you

As soon as my heart stops breakin' (as soon as my heart stops breakin')
Anticipating (anticipating)
Someday I'll be over you

As soon as my heart (as soon as my heart stops breakin')
(Anticipating)

    This verse says it all. He will never be over her. Since forever is... well... forever He will never be over her.

    "As soon as my heart stops breaking Anticipating As soon as forever is through I'll be over you"

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
