The sap is rising And there's no disguising What I feel for you So mesmerizing Got me fantasizing Nothing I won't do Parascending, whoa oh But it's all depending On your sky so blue My wings keep stalling From the sky I'm falling And it's over - all over you All over you Let me build a nation That bears no relation to the one we knew Take inspiration From my own salvation 'Cause it's over - all over you Get on board the gravy train Off the rails if you don't keep me sane Justify the things I do Just believe that it's all over you All over you The sap is rising And there's no disguising What I feel for you So mesmerizing Got me fantasizing And it's over - all over you [Spoken] Through the heat-haze and the blue I will shimmer and distort And become what you always knew But were never taught in this sad time Take on board the things I say Just be sure that you'll be mine someday Justify the things I do Just believe that it's all over you All over you The sap is rising Got me fantasizing So mesmerizing And there's no disguising That it's over - all over you
