| Love is a boat and it's hard to keep that boat afloat |
| When waves come crashing in from every direction |
| There's a storm passing through and it's headed straight for me and you |
| There's bound to be some heavy raining for the sun comes shining through |
|
| So when the dark clouds are all around |
| And the ship starts a-rockin' like it's goin' down |
| We can't be afraid of goin' overboard |
| Overboard with your love and affection |
| Takes a little more giving and a lot less taking |
| You can go under or we can go overboard |
|
| Now when troubles hit |
| You know a lot of lovers they just quit |
| They don't see the blue out on the horizon |
| They give up, hit the door |
| When they ought to give a little bit more |
| 'Cause the secret to surviving is to both go overboard |
|
| So when the dark clouds are all around |
| And your ship starts a-rockin' like it's goin' down |
| You can't be afraid of goin' overboard |
| Overboard with your love and affection |
| Takes a little more giving and a lot less taking |
| You can go under or you can go overboard |
|
| When the dark clouds are all around |
| And your ship starts a-rockin' like it's goin' down |
| You can't be afraid of going overboard |
| Overboard with your love and affection |
| Takes a little more giving and a lot less taking |
| You can go under or you can go over |
| You can go under or you can go over |
| You can go under or you can go overboard |
