[Verse 1]
Overtime
I got a lot of friends, it keeps growing
Keeping me company when my hand's glowing
Setting it down is worse than not knowing
[Refrain]
Don't give your whole life away
That is all you have to do
[Verse 2]
I don't mind, really
I just don't like talking about that anymore
Life's been a lot of "tell your story"
"When did you meet and where's it all going?"
[Chorus]
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
[Verse 3]
Hold on tight
There are a lot of things arriving at your door
Try to engage and stick to the story
You haven't changed but now you're less boring
[Refrain]
Don't live your whole life away
That is all I ask of you
[Verse 4]
Life's a lot of sleeping though
I'll get some problems resolved in my dreams
Holding a gaze is hard while floating
Where have you been and where are you going?
[Chorus]
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
Take your love away
Would it ever be enough?
