Woman Overboard

And she's laid herself bare This time it's about her And when her hours are ending There's still love to defer Dark and slow are the nightmares And her language is small Says she needs a friend to listen But in silence she falls And the fear of the distance Between sunset and truth And I'm right here beside her Trying to be of some use Woman overboard, woman overboard She's not waving, she's going down But she's still breathing and holding on Woman overboard Her horizons are drifting And she's wanting to please And she keeps her secrets quietly And she knows when to leave Woman overboard, woman overboard She's not waving, she's going down But she's still breathing and holding on Woman overboard, woman overboard
