Overnight
Country-kickin’ cure for a heartache party
Lyrics:
It’s deep in the summer and I’m singin’ the blues
I tried too hard to get next to you.
I know I should’ve taken more time
But you’re all that’s on my mind.
When I walk on the beach I see plenty of things
To keep me distracted while I’m waiting in the wings
For if you should ever change your mind
I’ll be there in a rhyme.
chorus: For I’m trying not to think.
Just gotta kick back into life….into life
Give me a chance to feel better overnight….overnight
Put me in a car and send me downtown
Take me to a place where the lights are loud
I’m gonna kick these boots till I shake you loose
From the heart you hung in a noose.
Chorus 2: And I’m trying not to think….don’t think
Just gotta kick back into life….into life
Give me a chance to feel better overnight….overnight…alright!
As I dance I see your eyes on me, I’m wondering if we could be
Together, forever, two kids and two cars
I’m out of my head I’ve got to break free!
Woah! I think too fast, gotta sit back, got to relax
Yo-ho! The doctor’s in the house sayin’ “Rock your inside out!”
And I’m trying not to think so I can kick back into life.
Give me a chance to feel better and I’ll make you feel alright….. overnight!
And I’m trying not to think just gotta kick back into life.
Give me a chance to feel better overnight….alright!
