Dusty Springfield - IT'S OVER

Dusty did an incredible job with this classic Jimmie Rodgers tune. The track can be found on the CD entitled "The Look of Love" (1999 remastered version of the 1967 album with four bonus tracks), as well as the four CD Box Set entitled "Simply Dusty" (2000).


It's Over (Lyrics)

If time were not a moving thing
And I could make it stay
This love we shared
Would always be
There'd be no coming day
No morning light above
To make me realise our love
Is over

And now you walk away from me
And there's no place to put my hand
Except to shade my eyes
Against the sun that comes to warm the land
I watch you walk away somehow
I have to let you go now
It's over

It's too late to tell you how I feel
Our love was real
And yet, there are so many times
That people have to love and then forget
Though there might have been a way
I have to force myself to say
It's over

And so I walk away and turn my collar to the wind
I walk along in silence trying not to think at all
I put my feet before me
Walk the silent street before me
It's over

If time were not a moving thing
And I could make it stay
This love we shared would always be
There'd be no coming day
No morning light above
To make me realise our love
Is over

It's over
It's over
It's over

Hi Donny

Could you explain, you say 'It's Over' is on the Look of Love album, I've got that and it's definitely not on mine.

Regards to all. Ray

Hi Ray, There are two CD's entitled "The Look of Love". The one to which I am referring is the remastered version of the 1967 album, which was released on CD in 1999 with four bonus tracks. The final track is "It's Over". It is available on Amazon and also on iTunes. Sorry for the confusion...hope this clears it up. Thanks. Donny

Dusty was a super star.

@kajunbaby5 Without a doubt! I was speaking specifically of the sadness the both can express, but Dust does indeed have the upper hand.

@jilhal24 I don't know so much about Karen, don't get me wrong I don't dislike her, but to me Dusty just blows them ALL out of the water when it comes to the voice! 

[jilhal24]

The heartache in her voice is...HEARTBREAKING. Dusty and Karen Carpenter can bring any grown man to tears.

That voice. I loved it when I was a young lad and I love it today.

A bonus track released after Dust's death...... How beautiful this song is.... A tragedy this and so many other songs were not released until Dust's death..... criminal..... perhaps a result of Dust's perfectionist obsessions...She could have whistled Dixie and melted your heart......... If only she had known how wonderful she was and fans like me could have let her know it...... WE LET HER DOWN!!!!!

I heard Elvis Presley singing this version and  thought wow. Both talented singers not the crapping music we hearing right now.

I HATE IT THAT I AM STILL UPSET ABOUT HER DEATH!
