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 wanna take you to Overlee 

In a blue world floating endlessly 

Where there's no language and there's no country 

I wanna 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 wanna take you to Overlee 

In a blue world floating endlessly 

Where there's no language and there's no country 

I wanna 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 and swim until we drowned (in the blue) 

We could swim (we could swim) around and round and round 

I wanna 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 wanna take you to Overlee 

Round and round and round (round and round) 

(6x) 

Where we could swim around and round and round 

And we could swim and swim until we drowned
