Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Won't ya talk to me?
This is so outta hand, outta hand
Something's gone wrong
With the life that we planned, yeah
[Verse 2]
Won't ya look at me?
You're avoiding my gaze, yes, you are
And it seems like you've changed
In so many ways, yeah
[Chorus]
It isn't fair, it isn't right
If it's really gone, then tell me tonight
If it's over (Over)
If it's over, let me go-oh (Just let me go)
[Verse 3]
Won't ya speak to me?
I'm just here, holding on, holding on
'Cause, baby, I really don't need to wait around, oh no
If the feeling is gone
[Chorus]
Oh, it isn't fair, it isn't right
'Cause, if it's really gone, then tell me tonight, baby, yeah-yeah
If it's over (Over)
If it's over, let me go, let me go (Just let me go)
[Bridge]
Don't you know, I don't need no apologies? No
I'm not lookin' for no sympathy
All I'm askin' for, is for your honesty
Won't ya give it to me, give it to me now?
[Chorus]
It isn't fair, it just isn't right
'Cause, if it's really gone, you got to say the word tonight, oh, yeah
If it's over (Over)
If it's over
Baby, if it's over (Just let me know)
Won't you let me know?
Baby, if it's over (Over)
If it's o-over, let me go-ooh, yeah (Just let me go)
