Lyrics Overcome - Ilsey

Overcome

It was down at the Avalon
When our love was laid to kindness
It was lost in the backseat of
Our ever-growin' silence
I was walkin', waitin' for you
I was holding onto the room

I was overcome
I was overcome

Better lies woulda stayed at my side
In the open arms of the highway
But I swore in the pale moonlight
I could see your face in the driveway
I was hopin' you were waitin' for me
I was hopin' I was open

I was overcome
I was overcome

How on Heaven and Earth
The more I love you the more it hurts?
I run, save myself
I won't cry, but I know you will
You were not the better man
And I was not that kind
Younger than I've ever been
When you walked in my life

I was overcome
I was overcome

How on Heaven and Earth
The more I love you the more it hurts?
I run, save myself
I won't cry, but I know you will
You were not the better man
And I was not that kind
Younger than I've ever been
When you walked in my life

I was overcome
I was overcome
