Blues for Samantha

"...Overwhelmed, Over easy, Over you..."


Over thinking
Over under
Over you

Scrapping my expectations
Lowering the bar
Redesigning my first impressions

Overwhelmed
Over easy
Over you

Stand tall you statue
Sticks and raucous bones
Better to be a lover than a manipulator

Over the moon
Over exposed
Over you

Let's change the tempo
Stop playing cat and mouse
We were created for a heightened mousetrap

Repeat first verse
