Lyrics
MAN OVERBOARD
I remember when our love was heading for the rocks
We'd navigate the good times with the bad
Then there came a time when I didn't see the signs
Guess I had something else on my mind
Well, if I say I'm sorry will you change your mind
Will you step up and throw me a line?
'Cos I'm A Man Overboard
Swimming against the tide
Trying to hide the tears that I've cried
I'm a Man Overboard
Drowning in a sea of tears
Yes, I'm a Man Overboard
I've always said the good days start with holding you
But maybe I didn't tell you like I should
Well, if I say it more will you guide me back to shore
Or am I someone you would rather ignore
So please have mercy on me and explain it to my heart
Tell it why you're keeping us apart
'Cos I'm A Man Overboard
Swimming against the tide
Trying to hide the tears that I've cried
I'm a Man Overboard
Drowning in a sea of tears
I'm a Man Overboard
Yes, I'm a Man Overboard
