You were the first
and you taught me how to love
and you'll always stay close to my heart
but it would not be fair it I wouldn't tell you now

That it's over, baby it's over

You took this lonely child
and you taught it how to feel
you took the rain clouds from my eyes
you made fantasy seem real
still it hurts me so inside
but I can't change and I can't hide

That it's over, maybe it's over

Oh now, I know you're not the one
it's me
I've changed inside
I feel a need to be free
it's over
maybe baby it's over

I was a lonely girl
just calling out for him
you taught me how to live
you taught me how to love myself
still it hurts me so inside
but I can't change and I can't hide

That's it's over, baby it's over

Oh, now I know you're not the one
it's me
I've changed, changed inside
I feel a need to be free

It's over
maybe baby it's over
it's over
please don't hate me
but it's over

Don't you know that I love you
don't you know that I care
don't you know that I love you
but I can't always be there
it ain't you
no, it's me
gonna fly like a bird
fly like a bird
yeah, I must be free
