Overdue - Liz Longley

It’s been a year and a day

Since I fired the engine and sped away

Past the weeping willow where we carved our names

Past the open field where summer nights would fade into morning

Chorus:

I was so naive

How could you I ever let you go

So carelessly

Running from the only truth I’ve ever known

Well, I once was green, now I’m blue

'Cause a love like yours is overdue

Through the fall and the spring

I yearned to feel something

Sleepless nights in strangers' arms

Getting so close but my heart felt so far away

Chorus repeats

'Cause a love like yours plays over and over in my head like a melody I can’t

forget

Over and over and over and over again

Chorus repeats
