Semisonic Over My Head song lyrics

Long ago I was told there were riches inside of me,

Someone old hid the gold and the finding was my affair,

In those days when my ears heard a story my mind believed,

So I searched with my greed in the sunshine for all to see there.

I'm in over my head in this game, over my head,

And I'm afraid I'm never gonna find my way back to where I've been.

Yes you know many tried, none succeeded my mind to train,

When the fools came to lay down their money I laughed, uncool,

Saw the mouth of the whale just in time to go down the drain,

Now I float with my boat in the darkness and play the fool.

I'm in over my head in this game, over my head,

And I'm afraid I'm never gonna find my way back to where I've been.

I'm in over my head in this game, over my head,

And I'm afraid I'm never gonna find my way back to where I've been,

To find my way back to where I've been.

I'm in over my head in this game, over my head,

And I'm afraid I'm never gonna find my way back to where I've been.

I'm in over my head in this game, over my head,

And I'm afraid I'm never gonna find my way back to where I've been,

Way back to where I've been.

To find my way back to where I've been.

To find my way back to where I've been.

To find my way back to where I've been.

Oh I...
