[Intro]

[Verse 1]
It's best to leave before it's over
But I hate to be the first to drive away
I see the end and try to hold on
But things tend to slip away
Still I try to stay

[Chorus]
Don't say it's over, yeah
You said things had to change
Don't say it's over, yeah
Nothing ever stays the same

[Verse 2]
It's days like these that make it harder
To believe the best is still to come
And how could it be that where we're headed
It's better than anywhere we're coming from
But I don't believe what I say
Still I try to stay

[Chorus]
Don't say it's over, yeah
You said things had to change
Don't say it's over, yeah
Nothing ever stays oh
Don't say it's over, yeah
You said things had to change
Don't say it's over, yeah
Nothing ever stays the same
[Verse 3]
(Don't say it's over, yeah)
And if this doesn't last forever I won't feel afloat
For holding something in my hands that was really true
And all the tears that I've cried was enough to prove
That it's worth it
And if this doesn't last forever I won't feel afloat
For holding something in my hands that was really true
And all the tears that I've cried was enough to prove
That it's worth it
Yeah it's worth it

[Chorus]
So don't say it's over, yeah
Yeah it's sad things had to change
Don't say it's over, yeah
Nothing ever stays so
Don't say it's over, yeah
It's sad things had to change
Don't say it's over, yeah
Nothing ever stays the same
The same
(Don't say it's over, yeah)

[Outro]
