Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dyin' flame, you're free again
Who could, love, do that to you?
All dressed in black, he won't be comin' back
Look, save your tears, got years and years
The pains of seventeen's
Unreal they're only dreams
Save your cryin' for the day
[Verse 2]
Fool, if you think it's over
'Cause you said goodbye
Fool, if you think it's over
I'll tell you why
New born eyes always cry with pain
First, look at the mornin' sun
Fool, if you think it's over
It's just begun
[Verse 3]
Miss Teenage Dream, such a tragic scene
He knocked your crown and ran away
First wound of pride, and how you cried and cried
But save your tears, got years and years
[Verse 4]
Fool, if you think it's over
'Cause you said goodbye
Fool, if you think it's over
I'll tell you why
[Verse 5]
(Fool, if you think it's over)
[Verse 6]
(Fool, if you think it's over)
[Verse 7]
I'll buy you first good wine
We'll have a real good time
Save your cryin' for the day
That may not come
But anyone who had to pay
Would laugh at you and say
[Verse 8]
Fool, if you think it's over
'Cause you said goodbye
Fool, if you think it's over
I'll tell you why
New born eyes always cry with pain
First, look at the mornin' sun
Fool, if you think it's over
It's just begun
[Verse 9]
(Fool, if you think it's over) I'll buy you first good wine
Ooh, we'll have a real good time
(Fool, if you think it's over) Save your cryin' for the day
New born eyes always cry with pain
First, look at the mornin' sun
Fool, if you think it's over
It's just begun
