The Verve Pipe - Overboard lyrics

Truth lives next to consequence It comes and goes like winter wind Blowing across the straits one night Cold as d**h and real as sin I loved her and she loved me Bound for what was meant to be But trouble travels silently There's a girl in Michigan Up in Lake Superior Who'll never bother us again Making our lives easier With alibis so paper thin Now that she is over me and Over you and Overboard Guide me toward that lonely light It's your beacon in the night Now row us straight back to that shore With frozen hands and muscles sore And my back against your back We glide along the water black Both knowing there's no turning back There's a girl in Michigan Up in Lake Superior Who'll never bother us again Making our lives easier With alibis so paper thin Now that she is out of sight And out of mind And Overboard She was never gonna let us go Had a hold on me And a curse on you As she lay there pale upon that shore With her eyes gone black They once were blue She could see me for the first time Now there's a girl in Michigan Who's overboard Truth moved on from consequence Just when things were making sense Her body washed back home to shore Discovered by a neighbor boy And now she's in our lives again The three of us in shadows
