Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So sad, so sad, gone and lost the best thing I ever had and you know, you know that I'm sorry
As our blood flows, I need you most and you've become the, you've become my overdose and you know that I'm sorry

And how I loved you so
Ooo, and how I loved so
Let's watch our rivers flow
Let's watch them overflow
Surrender to me always
I'll cherish you and keep you safe, with you I'm infatuated
With this love
There's no room for hate.

I've tried, I've tried, we all make mistakes and I could of lied and you say you've hears I'm not sorry
I guess that's just how it goes the situations blown
With these words I'll show you'll be never be my overdose
No, no, no no I'm not sorry

And how I loved you so
And how I loved you so
Let's watch our rivers flow
Let's watch them overflow

Surrender to me always
I'll cherish you and keep you safe, with you I'm infatuated




With this love
There's no room for hate.

Who needs strings with a voice like that. A&B brought me here. Hope the attention they bring propel Annie into success, and that that success does not corrupt the pureness that comes across from her songs and voice. Congratulations to all involved in this production, can't wait for the finished product.
