Overrated Lyrics by Irma Thomas

Overrated

Words and Music by Luke Juby and Steve Howard

You can wrap me up, in a state of mind
And free my sole
You can take the light that I can't see
And let it glow

Every time I see you
I forget the stormy clouds in my head and I just think about you

Will you lift me up
Will you turn my world or is this overrated?
Will you make me weak
When I hold your hand, or is this overrated?
Will you change my mood
With a single smile or is this overrated?

You're the only voice, that I want to hear
You're the only sound
And I tried so hard to fight this war and it's taking hold

There's no use in trying

You can see that I am yours, I'm falling, and so I think about you

Will you lift me up
Will you turn my world or is this overrated?
Will you make me weak
When I hold your hand, or is this overrated?
Will you change my mood
With a single smile or is this overrated

'Cause I've been hurt by the same thing before
You know the kind, the one who you think is for sure
So don't you go letting me down
'Cause I couldn't take it no more
Don't you go letting me down

Will you lift me up
Will you turn my world or is this overrated?
Will you make me weak
When I hold your hand, or is this overrated?
Will you change my mood
With a single smile or is this overrated?
