[verse 1]
75 outgoing calls, each one of them to you
Sometimes I wish I could turn off my mind
Detach my brain, and hand it to a stranger passing me by
I had to learn the hard way
that friends like these come but once in a lifetime

[verse 2]
75 outgoing calls, each one of them to you
Sometimes I wonder if you're out there still waiting on me
these days I sit alone thinking only of you
I had to learn the hard way
that absense made your faint heart wander

[pre-chorus]
Could it be in the quest for clarity we've gone nowhere
But it comes the moment I find you?

[chorus 1]
Overshadow me
Take me from this place you found me in
This shooting star will burn out bright
Disappoint me
Do what you must do to get through me
Your call is deeper than my fall

[verse 3]
I ran to where the sidewalk ends then sent this transmission
Sometimes it seems as though you're tracking me
but I don't mind the boy who's left here now thinking only of you
I see you driving southbound
The midwest sun eats you up in the distance

[pre-chorus]
Could it be in the quest for clarity we've gone nowhere
But it comes the moment I find you?

[chorus 2]
Overshadow me
Take me from this place you found me in
This shooting star will burn out bright
Disappoint me
Do what you must do - surprise me
Your call is deeper than my fall.

[bridge]
Song inside my mind
I have traveled far too long to find
you are not at home
How does this end?
Song inside my mind (song inside my mind)
I have traveled far too long to find (far too long to)
If you're make believe (make believe)
Let's play pretend

[chorus 3]
Overshadow me
Take me from this place you found me in
This shooting star will burn out bright
Disappoint me (disappoint me)
Do what you must do to get through me
Your call is deeper than my fall (after all)
