Stereophonics – Since I Told You It's Over

"since i told you its over" as written by Kelly Jones, Stuart Cable and Richard Mark Jones....
Black and blue from the wind and the rain
Said I'm sorry for the lies and the pain
I never ever meant to make you cry
If I could take you back, you know, I would,
I wanna burn up and die

So take a look at me now
Since I told you it's over
You got a hole in your heart
I'll find a four leaf clover
You can't tell me this now
This far down the line
That you're never, ever gonna get over me

You've seen a cross, it's a cross I bear
You're drinking, hard up, living without a hope or a care
You're making do to please, see what makes you smile
You're not around for long, you gotta see what's gonna move your life right along

So take a look at me now
Since I told you it's over
You got a hole in your heart
I'll find a four leaf clover
You can't tell me this now
This far down the line
That you're never, ever gonna get over me

I'm lost
I'm cold
I'm getting old
My head is filled with lies I told

I've been down
I've been around
But I've fallen on my own two feet
And I've left you out to drown
I never meant for that

I look around, sometimes I stare
I think back now and then, I hope you know I care
I walked away that day, trying to treat you right
But you were on your track, it was me turning back, I left you freezing outside

So take a look at me now
Since I told you it's over
You got a hole in your heart
I'll find a four leaf clover
You can't tell me this now
This far down the line
That you're never, ever gonna get over me
Never get over me
Never get over me

But you were on your track, it was me turning back, I left you freezing outside

So take a look at me now
Since I told you it's over
You got a hole in your heart
I'll find a four leaf clover
You can't tell me this now
This far down the line [to fade]

    General Commentfinding a four leaf clover signifies good luck - its a proverb going back to garden of eden i think - so in the context of the song its the contrast and thus guilt that while one person has a hole in their heart the other seems to have had good luck

    General CommentDo not listen to it if your bf (who happends to be a huge stereophonics's fan) breaks up with you !

    Such a heartbreaking song, specially the: you can't tell me this now, this far down the line, that you never ever gonna get over me ♪

    General Commenti was thinking '' you got a hole in your heart, i will find you a four leaf clover'' means he wants to do something to cover her hole in her heart.

    General CommentI love this song so much. I am a HUGE fan of Stereophonics!
    This song, to me, describes how he has just broken up with his girlfriend and he is sorry because she still loves him and feels heartbroken.

    '' you got a hole in your heart, i will find you a four leaf clover'' - I reckon this is that he feels guilty that she 'has a hole in her heart' and he doesnt know what to say to her saying this. So he just says something random.

    Once again great song and perfectly describes what im going through at the moment. I love it. I love it. I love it.
