John Legend - It's Over Lyrics
[Intro]
I don't wanna be what you want me to be
So when I call you're just yelling at me
I'm sorry it's my fault
It's over
[Chorus: Repeat 2x]
Now what do you keep calling for
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
It's over, it's over
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
[Verse 1]
(It's over)
In the back of my mind I question why I keep calling
I guess I'm just used to getting my way I'm spoiled
So when I call you're just yelling at me
I'm sorry it's my fault
Oh, the clothes I bought you could still wear (still wear)
Did you destroy the cards and teddy bears (ooh)
See there I go again sticking my nose
I'm sorry it's my fault (hey, hey, hey, hey)
[Chorus: Repeat 2x]
Now what do you keep standing there for
It's over, it's over
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
Don't you know it is
Now what do you keep calling for
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
It's over, it's over
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
(It's over)
Girl talking to myself in the mirror is strange enough (strange enough)
So you gotta know sharing this with you is painful, yeah (painful)
You know we used to talk about our future
It ain't just all my fault (I know, I know, I know we used to talk about it, babe)
So say goodbye to the way the leaves would fall (leaves would fall)
The way we stand in the rain and we would bawl (we would cry)
Just say goodbye
To the walks and talks and the dark in the park
And it ain't just all my fault (hey, hey, hey, hey)
[Chorus: Repeat 2x]
Now what do you keep calling for
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
Oh it's over, it's over (over)
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
Now what do you keep calling for
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
Don't you know that it's over, it's over (over)
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
[Kayne West]
(It's over)
We lost a four leaf clover
Don't ask why shorty be over
News flash shorty we over
We like Def Jam and Hova
We like Bobby and Whitney
Except without the kiddies
Like Pamela Anderson's career
Except without the titties
We had some good times didn't we
I know I won't forget that
But we had some bad times and
That's time I wish I could get back
We coulda had it all
But I guess we'll never know
You been around me long enough
To know that now it's over
[Chorus: Repeat 2x]
Now what do you keep calling for
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
It's over, it's over
(What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
[Vamp: Repeat 4x]
[Repeat:] (What do you keep calling for, what do you keep calling for)
Yeah, it's nothing we can do with it
So you might as well forget it
Like we never ever did it, oh it's over
Nothing we can do with it
So we might as well forget it
Like we never ever did it, oh hey
Nothing we can do with it
So we might as well forget it
Like we never ever did it, oh
Nothing we can do with it
So we might as well forget it
Like we never ever did it, oh

You cant have a bad kanye x pharrell song. Impossible
This was my ringtone in middle school lol 💀 I really forgot about this song! Anyone catch that Pharrell mixed a part of the swv song he produced early on in his career into this song??
Why is this no on spotify! This son is 🔥
2019!🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵
“ Now what do ya keep callin for....it’s over.....it’s over” ...jam on!!!!!!!!!💃🏽🕺🏽

On Instagram and saw @lexitelevision son perform John Legend hilarious....thats what got me here! Nice song!
I'm a HUGE Neptunes fan but this has Kanye all over it
Faith Evans 😍
Que viagem...
Linda música...
👏👏👏👏👏👏

Neo Khanyile what made them take it off, tho?
@William Bunch that sample
Adam Azab Raji thanks. Gotta be effing kidding me 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
2018 anyone?
2018 still
True song💔💔💔
Take me back to the Summer of 2013🙏🙌
still banging in 2018
The whole album is on ITunes except this song and this is my favorite song 😩
Best album by the legend
One of the best songs EVER. It's too real. Maybe the WORLD is scaredddd!!!!
A lot of people complaining about Ye’s auto tune back in 2013, 2014, and 2015 must love the music out right now in 2017
one of my favs, for real!!
Damn this track is the shit man...#legend
"what do you keep callin for, it's over"
@3:27 to the fade out, my favorite<3
seeing that most of these comments are from 2013! 2017 anyone?
yarleniz munoz me
🎤💖💯
Not on Apple Music for what reason?
Neither spotify :(
Scyldari Stem I found it on amazon’s prime music if that helps. 👍🏾
That's why I came here lol the only song I like from this album
Sampling i guess .
damn this joint is still a banger
Why would it stop?
Neptunes 🖖🏾
+John Currence the sound bro
+Anthony Holliday You mean the production?
+John Currence yeah man
@Anthony Holliday Nah The Neptunes didn't produce this. KP and Malay did.
John Currence the synth and funk is reminiscent of neptunes though. P probably had input but no written credit. For example, Theres a lot of “pharrell produced” songs that chad helped with
#NappyNation
"Most slept on song" nappy 2016
neptunes ❤️
Yeah but at this point it was just Pharrell.
Why isn't this on Spotify?
+samueltaylor1 nope, I'm also here because it's not on there
branden burks it's not on tidal either :/ must be a lawsuit behind the song
The song is not there as a tactic to get album sales. You cannot buy that song as a single, only way to get the song is by buying the full album.
2 years later I came to listen to this and it's still not on Spotify. So weird since it's just a random skipped song
The record label will not allow streaming according to my Tidal App. Lol
pra quem gosta de charme...
I felt like they was dancing in the booth while they recorded it
Bryan Foster I would’ve been.
I legit can't hear Pharell's voice at all but great song
He produced the song ;)
The chorus "What do you keep calling for" is him
+Demarko “3D” English No that's John Legend. Around @1:40 Pharrell sings "painfull.. heyy" and than @1:57 "leaves would fall, leaves would fall" ; @2:01 "we would cry". And at the end of Kanye's verse @3:03 that's also P. Btw the chorus reminds me of the chorus of Joe - "Gone Away" (Prod. By Pharrell & Chad Hugo)
Demarko English i thought that’s john legend it sounds like him
PHARRELL AND KANYE OVER EVERYTHING
Still my jam.
There are two Number Ones between John Legend, Kanye West & Pharrell Williams. Not chart hits, but collabs actually called Number One.
Justin Lai this is pharrell beat,dude
my god this tune is SO good...for me this is about the only tune where Kanye actually does anything good ! his little verse is quite funny/clever in it actually
@Josh Music Reviews yeah cool and you are entitled to your opinion, and i take it from what you said you like his music... but I'm not feeling it
Well, different strokes for different folks, I always say :P
@Afro'd Avenger Music Reviews I'd give Kanye more of a chance if he wasn't such a douche lol. I actually like what he does musically, but then because it's HIM singing it, I'm just like "nah...".
@Nathan Mantle Learn how to judge and Artist for their art and not what the media tries to portray him as. Practically all of his albums (maybe minus Watch the Throne and Cruel Summer) are classics in their own right. And really, he's not a bad person at all. He has a lot of pride, but considering he's a genius producer, he has over 20 Grammys, MBDTF is considered one of the best albums in the past decade, he has one of the best discographies in all of Hip-Hop, his first three LPs were straight classics through and through, and he generally just puts out really awesome, diverse music, I suppose he has every right to be. Whenever he acts out in public, I just say "that's typical Kanye," but keep in mind that 8 times out of 10, the media is probably setting him up to look bad. TMZ does this ALL the time. He's their favorite person to pick on.
@Afro'd Avenger Music Reviews
But he says a bunch of ridiculously arrogant things. I think all musicians should have some humility. After all, even he started out from the bottom. He has to give credit to his luck and not just his talent. there are talented artists who, because they weren't in the right place at the right time, never made it. Kanye can't deny this fact if he wants my approval. I know I should just listen to the music, but imagine somebody you don't like is speaking directly into your ears lol. It would be pretty hard to not get annoyed, right?
Amazing!
o(•~•)o
Love this jam!!!!!!!
kanye top 3 hip hop producers of all time no doubt.
@Marvin Sage Its actually both Malay and Pharrell.
+Michael Cutrer the intro has definitely gotta be pharrell
Actually, Malay and KP produced this song.
+ pharell too
Its actually malay, pharrell AND kanye guys who produced this
808's KanYe :)
best ye
My old JAM
Such a good tune for my ears.
It is 2013 sir
Lool, you are either 15 or not xD
(I dont mean it to come across as rude, its just that that made me laugh)
Bitch please, 2013!
this is my freaking jam and im like 15
NNG11 lol
NNG11 I just now got in it
Chris Brown!?!?! really???
That knucklehead is only known because he put hands on Rihanna, something Mr. Legend would never do.
hahaha! I'm sorry, but I gotta laugh at the irony! Even if it was blatant :)
My jammmmnn!!!
i hate it when people dont have a profile picture :D
prrreeeeaaach sista
sounds so much like pharrell at the beginning
impresionante!!!!!!!!!
this is one of my favorites from john legend voice is simply amazing.
I love this song :)))
theres nothing underrated about John Legend he won his grammys..Kanye west know wat the fck he doin!
it's cause he's a traditional r&b artist... he's not gimmicky or for the kids like usher and chris brown... def doesn't make techno dance beats like those two, he's pure pure quality.
He's better than Chris Brown, there's no doubt about it. Chris Brown doesn't even know how to sing, he's only good at dancing. Usher is other story. John Legend is a very good artist, and I really think he's underrated. But I think Usher is in another level. Even so, John is a great artist, and doesn't deserve to be compared with CB. I was just giving my opinion ;)
Oh! And the song is great :)
The only person that would say Chris brown is better than JL is die hard fan, that wants his penis.
Not that he made too many mistakes, almost a flawless one up until this point as i'm a huge fan. But to the point: John Legend or the label tripped over something monumental when they decided to NOT release this as a single with a video to accomodate it. The song HAD HIT WRITTEN ALL OVER IT!!! What was 'Ye thinking not pushing this to the masses?
Huge misstep imo. Could have been monumental.
(1 year later) I personally agree with what you're saying,I prefer Legend than these two others BUT they don't really have the same musical genre.Legend is more "soul" and Usher and Chris Brown are more like "modern r'n'b music"
I'm raping the replay button it's just addictive :)
His biggest recognition comes from his humanitarian and philanthropic work.
Much better...neither Chris bitch ass Brown nor Usher arrange, orchestrate, write and produce their own music and music for other people. When you are looking at the quality of music and diversity of vocals, John Legend is on a completely other level. Ignore the other two ingnorant commentors please.
I can't believe you guys are even having this conversation. This is like comparing apples to oranges.. Apples and oranges..
Kanye knows how to use auto tunes well!
why yall talking about chris brown on a john jegend song. beat it o.O
I actually believe you are truly stupid as fuck
LOL you & 82 mad? HAHAHA dumbass
lol @ you people catching feelings over my troll comment LMAO damn i deserve a grammy for that
better at what? dancing? hell no
my farts are lyrically better than chris brown
John Legend is lyrically better than Chris Brown.
I shouldn't say on the same level, it's definitely opinion based. I like them both equally.
I'm sorry but John Legend and Usher are at the very least on the same level. They're both fantastic in their own ways.
how many grammys does chris brown have 1 how many does usher have 7 how many does john legend have 9 stfu
Ha. In no way did that person say he was better then chris brown.
John legend doesn't have the same popularity as him.
Don't you feel stupid
I think all he said was that Chris Brown is more famous though John Legend deserves it more.
d(^_^)b
Happiest breakup song ever
now why do i keep repeating this song why do i keep repeating this song , (its over)
I'm here for Yeezy
I'm here for Weezy
in russia 240 p is HD
its cool he's got more grammys
omg i was just thinking about how i loved both chris brown & john legend and then i looked at the top comments, what a coincidence!
Mhmm..and ain't a wife beater :)
lmfao you idiot, that person said John Legend is BETTER than Usher & Chris Brown. So learn to read before you talk about choking someone.
Seriously, is there anybody who compares John Legend with Chris Brown? Fucked up world! Legend is Legend.... Chris is just Chris! John Legend is a modern Al Green!
he is not like usher .. so no comparison but cb is just crap in comparison
@DAMMITSANTANA phaha u cant count can u :L 6 months ago it was 2011. LOSER
@InSaN3ViSioN john legend has better writing, vocal and producing ability than chris brown. Chris Brown is a better dancer. Hard to compare as they are completely different artists.
