Overflow Lyrics - Singles - The Mayfield Four

The dial tone is all that sings 

It's raining hard inside and far away 

What's so new? 

This never-ending drama won't fade 

My gut's a coil and my only drain 

Will this never end? 

It's breaking heart, it's bruising head 

Why does the good go so bad? 

All the joy is fading fast 

The contradictions they are killing me 

This pretzel logic makes her hard to receive 

So fall out again and swallow me whole 

Every thing's changed from blowing kisses to throwing stones 

Night trades with day 

And let dawn begin to break 

Once again she knows me too well 

How to heal, how to help 

For a while I am saved by her smile 

And all the harm comes undone 

Just soon enough to stop the flood 

The overflow should her charm not hold 

It could drown me today 

Must the river run so high, my love 

You know your smile can 

Dam the river that I have of you
