Overboard Lyrics
I see you crying and it rains, washing away the bad days, washing away the pain loss brings...
And then you smile though it aches, cos you don't believe in mistakes, just that we made a mess of things...
When the deal that you made with love is just a one way street, a one way street, you feel you'll go overboard, cos you're incomplete, incomplete.
You're not afraid to rely on any way you can try to learn to make some sense of things.
And the way you say we'll get by, with a little laugh we can fly, you know the measure of hope that brings.
I hear you laughing like a child, instead of choking all riled, instead of staring at shortcomings.
Just like the rain when you cried washed all the stains of false pride,
you'll learn to make the best of things.
Have a little more of not enough
More of what is less but isn't love
Little of the same you're dreaming of
That's enough, that's enough.
you'll learn to make the best of things.
More of what is less but isn't love
Little of the same you're dreaming of
That's enough, that's enough.

can someone tell me what this song means???
To me, it's about one person not taking a relationship/vows as seriously as the other one. it's about a relationship that has gone bad and one of them breaks away from their promise to each other leaving the other one devastated.
To me, It sounds like one person in the relationship isn't truly in love. They wish to have that feeling so bad that they pretend its real. but it falls short of expectations, and they want more, leaving them feeling more empty inside than anything close to love.
