Lyrics
Overflow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The dial tone is all that sings
It's raining hard inside and far away
What's so new
This never-ending drama won't fade
My guts are coil and my only drain
Will this ever end
It's breaking heart, it's bruising head
Why does the good go so bad?
All the joy is fading fast
Contradictions they are killing me
A pretzel logic makes her hard to receive
So fall out again
And swallow me whole
Everythings changed
From blowing kisses to throwing stones
Night trade with day
And let dawn begin to break
Once again she knows me to well
How to heal and how to help
For awhile I am saved by her smile
And all the harm comes undone
Just soon enough to stop the flood
The overflow
Should her charm not hold
It could drown me today
Must the river run so high my love
Will this ever end
It's breaking heart, it's bruising head
Why does the good go so bad?
All the joy is fading fast
Night trade with day
And let dawn begin to break
And she knows me
How to help and how to break me
For awhile I am saved by her smile
And all the harm comes undone
Just soon enough to stop the flood
The overflow
Should her charm not hold
It could drown me today
Must the river run so high my love
You know your smile can dam the river that I have of... You
You know your smile can dam the river that I have of you
Smiles can dam the river
Smiles can dam the river
Smiles can dam the river
Smiles can dam the river
