Overwhelmed

(album: Cyclone Raymond - 1989)

I saw you as usual one morning
In the shop on the corner
Looking less happy than you could have been
I thought here's my chance for a joke
Or maybe a compliment
Couldn't do any worse than I've done before, no more

I threw my line then you started to smile
I had to look away for a long long while

'Cause I was overwhelmed by you
Couldn't understand why you looked at me
Overwhelmed by you
Overwhelmed

Now that you've shown an interest in me
I can't put two words together
I look everywhere but never at you
I must admit it never occurred to me
That I could lose control so easily
I'm at a bit of a loss to know what to do, what to do

'Cause I was overwhelmed by you
Couldn't understand why you looked at me
Overwhelmed by you
Overwhelmed

I threw my line then you started to smile
I had to look away for a long long while

I saw you as usual one morning
In the shop on the corner
Looking less happy than you could have been
I must admit it never occurred to me
That I could lose control so easily
I'm at a bit of a loss to know what to do, what to do

I threw my line then you started to smile
I had to look away for a long long while

'Cause I was overwhelmed by you
Couldn't understand why you looked at me
Overwhelmed by you
Overwhelmed

Yes I was overwhelmed by you
Couldn't understand why you looked at me
Overwhelmed by you
I was overwhelmed by you
Overwhelmed by you
Overwhelmed
Overwhelmed by you
I was overwhelmed by you
Yes I was overwhelmed by you
Couldn't understand why you looked at me
Yes I was overwhelmed by you
I was overwhelmed by you...
