Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh

Now I’m over you in my thoughts
But I’ve been always over in yours
When we’re overboard, is there any way to get back?

Now I’m over you in my thoughts
But I’ve been always over in yours
When we’re overboard, is there any way to get back?

When we’re overboard, is there any way to get back?
When we’re overboard, is there any way to get back?

Ooh

Now I’m over you in my thoughts




But I’ve been always over in yours
When we’re overboard, is there any way to get back?
