Today Morrissey release a brand new single calls It’s Over. The single is a cover of a 1964 Roy Orbison song, and it will appear on a forthcoming album called California Sun. California Son will be an album of all covers featuring covers of Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and more. No release date is set yet.
In our opinion, this song features some of the best vocals that we have heard from Morrissey in quite a while. The album will be produced by Joe Chiccarelli and will be released by BMG.

Lyrics
Your baby doesn’t love you any more
Golden days before they end
Whisper secrets to the wind
Your baby won’t be near you any more
Tender nights before they fly
Send falling stars that seem to cry
Your baby doesn’t want you any more
It’s over
It breaks your heart in two, to know she’s been untrue
But oh what will you do? then she said to you
There’s someone new we’re through we’re through
It’s over it’s over it’s over
All the rainbows in the sky start to even say goodbye
You won’t be seeing rainbows any more
Setting suns before they fall, echo to you that’s all that’s all
But you’ll see lonely sunset after all
It’s over it’s over it’s over it’s over
