Over - Blue October

When I had you — when your love would pull me through

When nights were long, when your love would make me strong

When time, regretful to say, in the gentlest way over you

Maybe I should follow your lead

And turn as is it never meant a thing to me

When you’re flying with your head down, feeling blown away

When you’re battered and bound by all the things you say

When you’re sleeping with the lights on — staring all the way

When you’re heading for a fall then roll over to me

To me, roll over to me

When I had you, when your arms would hold me true

When nights were long, when your love would make me strong

When time, regretful to say, just go you own way and you do

Maybe I should swallow this pride

And turn as is it never meant a thing to me

When you’re flying with your head down, feeling blown away

When you’re battered and bound by all the things you say

When you’re sleeping with the lights on — staring all the way

When you’re heading for a fall then roll over to me

To me, roll over to me

If we can take the chances — then there’s nothing that we can’t do

If we can take the chances — then there’s nothing, nothing

That we can’t do

When you’re flying with your head down, feeling blown away

When you’re battered and bound by all the things you say

When you’re sleeping with the lights on — staring all the way

When you’re heading for a fall then roll over to me

To me, roll over to me
