Don't
Overflow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well you are my strength even though I'm never weak
And you are my joy even though I'm never sad
But sometimes I see that you get a little mad
I will always love you, always

Do you love me, I need to know
Do you love me, tell me it's so
Here I am, take my hand, why can't you just understand me
Don't run away
Will you ever realize there's more to life than meets the eye
Don't run away

You stay close to my heart, like the moon to the stars
You are in my head always near and never far
But sometimes I know that you don't even care
I will always love you, always





Someday you will stop ignoring me, hopefully
Don't be afraid, don't run away
