Before It's Over

The summary is as follows: 1) The document describes a girl who feels alone on Friday nights listening to records by herself as a waitress. 2) The song encourages the girl to see that there is a beautiful world beyond what she currently knows and to follow it before it's too late. 3) By the end, the girl realizes she never knew there was a bigger world waiting for her and is happy that she can now see it, even if the way she came to see it was difficult.

Before it’s over

An awkward girl with her guitar keeping to herself


Friday nights alone with the records on her shelf
A waitress pouring ginger ale and coke
Someone you ask out as a joke
I've been that girl who fades away
Accepting what I've got
Stuck in what I am and everything I'm not
I've only seen this tiny world I'm in where I can only be where I've been

See a world beautiful and strange


Spinning off somewhere saying "Meet me there!"
Look look how fast it runs away singing "Follow close and reach for me"
See that you've got so much more for to be
Before it's over, before it's over

I can't go write another song I'm too afraid to play


Or dream how things can change but only see what's in my way
I can't go back to what I was before now that I can see so much more

See a world beautiful and strange


On a one way track and it won't come back
Look look how fast it runs away singing "Follow close and reach for me"
See that you've got so much more to be
Before it's over

I never even knew a world was waiting


Somehow something awful made that world appear
Maybe this sounds crazy but I'm happy that it happened
Happy that I came
Happy that I'm here

I can see a world beautiful and strange


Can you see it too?
It's so close don't let it get away there's so much to do
Before it's over
