Temptations, The - How Can You Say That It's Over Lyrics






This can't be true
That the best of our love is way behind
We can find it together
My love for you
Is as strong as the day we fell in love
And we planned for ever

Here I am
In the middle of the night and my need for you
And you're breaking us into

Oh how can you say that it's over (how can you say)
How can you say that it's over (how can you say)
I can't even start to say what's in my heart
Though you many miles away from me
Don't you know you'll always be my love
Yeah

It never ends
All the voices inside that say it's me
And I'm somehow to blame girl
The pain begins
When I think that you're love has gone for good
And it won't be the same, no

Change your mind
Cause I can't change the love I felt from the start
No I just can't change my heart

Oh how can you say that it's over (how can you say)
How can you say that it's over (how can you say)
I can't even start to say what's in my heart
Though you're many miles away from me
Don't you know you'll always be my love

How can you say that it's over (how can you say)
How can you say that it's over (how can you say)
I can't even start to say what's in my heart
Though you're many miles away from me
Don't you know you'll always be my love

Tell me how can you say it's over (how can you say)
How can you say that it's over (how can you say)
I can't even start to say what's in my heart
Though you're many miles away from me
Don't you know you'll always be my love

How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
Say that it's over
How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
Say that it's over
How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
Say that it's over

I can't even start to say what's in my heart
Though you're many miles away from me
Don't you know you'll always be my love

How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
Say that it's over
How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
How can you say, how can you
Say that it's over

    good taste never dies.

  12. S.... D....

    This is still one of my all time favorite songs. Amazing vocals.

  13. T.... F....

    I was six years old when this song was released. My great grand mother passed and this song was playing. Will never forget. Became my all time favorite!

  14. A.... ....

  16. T.... F....

    beautiful song! was about 6 maybe 7 yrs old when it came out.

  17. C.... N....

    A great album indeed.

  18. L.... N....

    Somehow, I still feel it's the best complete album done by the temptations. I could play it from start to end.

    L.... N....

    I see your point, I think between Psychedelic Shack and Truly For You, the albums in between didn't appeal to people who weren't Tempts fans. Plus Ali Ollie's integration gave them a whole new different sound.

  19. R.... C....

    check the producers ot this album,philli ingram,atalla zane giles who started out with switch,johnnie graham from ewf,and the great al mckay

  20. V.... ....

    Great song.  Thank you for the memories. 

  21. p.... ....

    Brings back so many memories! Thanks for posting. My sister had this album

  22. M.... N....

    touching

  23. K.... ....

    This tune takes me back to my late teens. Wow! The slow grinding in the club was so sensual. Back in the day when folks dressed up to go out, men held out their hands to help you up from your seat after you'd accepted their invitation to dance, and then held you snugly in their arms while you both anticipated what would be happening later on that night. Good times.

  24. M.... ....

    An underrated album and single. Ron and Ali-Ollie had excellent chemistry! This song should have been a bigger hit.

  25. s.... ....

    Alis Brownlee. mines too

  36. M.... ....

    @BossgameMedia Me too. They could have done a video for this gem.

  37. M.... ....

    @cookchem I remember looking for this album 4 years after it came out. I was originally going to buy the tape but when i saw the album i grabbed it quickly and I fell in love with this song. it has a nice Soul/Reggae feel and it should have been a bigger hit. With Ali and Ron singing lead

  38. M.... ....

    @allstatelegs1 That was so nice of him. I also remember when my aunt asked him to autograph her 20 dollar bill When she said that was all she had he said thats ok He was cool like that.

  39. a.... ....

    This song makes me cry, I love it to the max

  40. D.... L....

    These Brothers are as legends as the Whispers, Delegation, Kool and The Gang, Dazz Band, just to name a few that pumped our hearts and mind during the eighties in the southside Auckland United States of New Zealand..haha!! luv your work..

  41. S.... C....

    @MUSICENCYLOPEDIA -I forgot about the orange hair, U R so right. We had a chance to sing background for Ollie when he appeared here in MD a few yrs back. He started w/Treat her like a lady, we started backgrnding, he looked to where the harmony was coming from, came over to our table, shook hands and said he was very impressed, sat w/us,took pictures w/us and told us we should be on stage. He said our harmony was very tight, our 16 yrs 2gether, it better be. Lov him and will miss Mr. Woodson.

  42. S.... C....

    This is the jam. The R&B group that I performed with, we has quite an experience with Mr. Woodson, he performed at this venue called Cranberries in MD so we went to see the show, as soon as he started with Treat her like a lady, well we started singing background. He looked where the harmony was coming from, came over and said he was impressed, gave us his bus card, shook our hands, paid for our drinks and we continued on singing background u nti the show was over. We sang backgrnd for Ollie.

  43. M.... ....

    @allstatelegs1 He helped the group with his vocals and his writing. He and Otis co-wrote Treat Her Like A Lady which hit # 2 on the R&B charts. In the late 1970's he was asked to replace Dennis when the group was going to Atlantic but didn't make the cut because he had Orangish-colored heair

  44. B.... ....

    @linnellL I have been looking for this song since I've had internet!! I am just as excited as you were a year ago!!!

  45. B.... ....

    I have been looking for this song for forever THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS ONE!!!!

  46. R.... T....

    Rest in peace Ollywood...gonna miss u much....

  47. J.... p....

  50. S.... C....

    Happy Holidays. U are right. When Ollie took over as lead he took the group to another deminision and Lord Ole Mighty listen to the harmony. I know for I sing w/aR&B vocal group and we do cover songs by the Tempts. We are damn gooood. We ae called Soul Club anf we appeared on the Apollo in New Yor in 05. We are called Soul Club.

  51. J.... ....
