Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm so hung up
I'm going to go see her tonight
I'm so hung up
I can't get her out of my mind
Could be just stars in my eyes
Could be this one happened twice
[Verse 2]
We're overdue for a dream come true
Long time, nothing new
We're overdue for a dream come true
[Verse 3]
She said she's going
To move to California one day
Said she's going
Out on safari to stay
She's tired of her job and the snow
We both need somewhere to go
[Verse 4]
We're overdue for a dream come true
Long time, nothing new
We're overdue for a dream come true
[Verse 5]
I'm so hung up on her now
I'm so strung out on her now
A gift from the sun to the moon
I hope something changes soon
[Verse 6]
We're overdue for a dream come true
Long time, nothing new
We're overdue for a dream come true
[Verse 7]
We're overdue for a dream come true
Long time, nothing new
We're overdue for a dream come true
