It is the saddest day 
When ya find you're alone 
Well, that's why I'm here with you 
See, I got no place to go 
Yeah, the truth is I feel safe here 
The most comforting place that I know 
It's still the saddest day 
When you say this is not my home 
I want to take you to Overlee 
In a blue world, floating endlessly 
Where there's no language, and there's no country 
I want to take you to Overlee 
Now, I return to your place 
Knocking, trying to get in 
And your roommate opens the door 
And says, "Why are you back here again?" 
I put my things down in the hall 
Quietly enter your room 
You're sound asleep with the cats 
As I climb back in bed with you 
I want to take you to Overlee 
In a blue world, floating endlessly 
Where there's no language, and there's no country 
I want to take you to Overlee 
And we could swim around, and 'round, and 'round (In the blue) 
And we could swim around, and 'round, and 'round (In the blue) 
And we could swim around, and 'round, and 'round (In the blue) 
We could swim (We could swim) around, and 'round, and 'round 
I want to take you to Overlee (Overlee) 
Floating 'round endlessly (endlessly) 
No language and no country (Overlee) 
Where I could hold you tenderly (tenderly) 
I would take you over me (over me) 
I want to take you to Overlee 
'Round, and 'round, and 'round ('round, and 'round)
'Round, and 'round, and 'round ('round, and 'round)
'Round, and 'round, and 'round ('round, and 'round)
'Round, and 'round, and 'round ('round, and 'round)
'Round, and 'round, and 'round ('round, and 'round)
'Round, and 'round, and 'round ('round, and 'round)
Where we could swim around, and 'round, and 'round 
And we could swim, and swim until we drowned
