Songtext Over you all Tanita Tikaram

Over you all

Well [lou is] alright hanging out in the wind
He really just wanted to fly
And Im alright doing the same again
You all understand I was shy
And all the palm-readers have my natural resistance
That was a bonus for you
If I told you I loved you, yeh you know I was lying
I was just trying one over you

And all the paper elephants in the paper in the school
They always used to make me laugh
Now teacher said youre learning but I knew I was inside burning
But these werent tears for the craft
And if you want to pretend you can help me any better
You just got to let me fall
Cos somewhere in a corner I know its alright
Im going to get over you all

(chorus)
And Im over you all
Well God knows thats one to the competition
Over you all
Well God knows our lives take strange positions

Well the angriest attitude dont fly so hot
You play by the water and drink such a lot
But I knew the reason to hang down my head
Its better, I think, I just lie on the bed
And sometimes it hurts but the hurtings not good
It just makes you feel like a fool
So somewhere along I can go [doing a throng]
Any say I can do without you

(chorus)

Somewhere inside
A laughter in here has died
Wont you come out to play, I know you played before boy
I know you played before

Well Im tingling to your talking till Im mud in your hands
You know [i] have no power so the statements kind of grand
You say I can save the world, yes I can solve your mind
Baby dont you tell me [? ] blind in my minds eye

(chorus)
