Lyrics Poets of the Fall

Poets of the Fall

Overboard

I see you crying and it rains

Washing away the bad days

Washing away the pain loss brings yeah

And then you smile though it aches

Cos you don't believe in mistakes

Just that we made a mess of things

When the deal that you made with love is now a one way street

A one way street

And you'll feel you'll go overboard

Cos you're incomplete, incomplete

You're not afraid to rely

On any way you can try

To learn to make some sense of things yeah

And the way you say we'll get by

With a little laugh we can fly

You know the measure of hope that brings

When the deal that you made with love is just a one way street

A one way street

And you'll feel you'll go overboard

Cos you're incomplete, incomplete

I hear you laughing like a child

Instead of choking all riled

Instead of staring at shortcomings yeah

Just like the rain when you cried

Washed all the stains of false pride

You'll learn to make the best of things

Have a little more of not enough

More of what is less but isn't love

Little of the same you're dreaming of

That's enough, that's enough

When the deal that you made with love is now a one way street

A one way street

And you'll feel you'll go overboard

Cos you're incomplete, incomplete

When the deal that you made with love is just a one way street

A one way street

And you'll feel you'll go overboard

Cos you are in-complete yeah

When the deal that you made with love is now a one way street

A one way street

And you'll feel you'll go overboard

Cos you're incomplete, incomplete

When the deal that you made with love is just a one way street

A one way street

And you'll feel you'll go overboard

Cos you're incomplete, incomplete
