Overboard

OVERBOARD I've given you my heart, completely, forever Still I don't know why, I'm holding something back Don't wanna hold something back and I've heard Sometimes a ship can turn around But it takes longer than you think and may run aground And I keep trying to figure it out BUT I’VE GOT STORMS AND I’VE GOT WORRIES INSIDE AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT ELSE IS HERE A CASE OF MY OWN FEAR I’M TRYING TO LIGHTEN THIS LOAD IN TIME AND MAKE ROOM FOR YOU TO BE ON BOARD THIS SHIP WITH ME I KNOW THAT SOMETHING’S GOTTA GO OVERBOARD It's never been my mind to keep you waiting Till you came along I didn't know how this deck Was stacked against you but Your ticket's still good, there's no expiration So don't throw it away, this trip's worth the wait We may be behind, but we'll make up the time BUT I’VE GOT A CARGO OF HEARTACH INSIDE AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT ELSE IS HERE BAGGAGE LEFT FROM YEARS I’M TRYING TO LIGHTEN THIS LOAD IN TIME AND MAKE ROOM FOR YOU TO BE ON BOARD THIS SHIP WITH ME I KNOW THAT SOMETHING’S GOTTA GO OVERBOARD BUT I’VE GOT CRATES FULL OF DEFENSES INSIDE AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT ELSE IS HERE BUT I’M TRYING HARD TO CLEAR IT AND LIGHTEN THIS LOAD IN TIME AND MAKE ROOM FOR YOU TO BE ON BOARD THIS SHIP WITH ME I JUST CANT SEEM TO THROW IT ALL I'm tempted to dive in, maybe we should ditch this ship and swim Overboard It's really not that bad here, overboard I'm glad you waited here for me, it took awhile to see I need to be overboard © 2013 Kari Hilpert All Rights Reserved Hickory Town Music (ASCAP
