Lyrics: Jon B. Overflow.

Oh baby, oh sweet girl

Verse 1
There's many tears and sad love songs
For all those who lost to love (yes)
Nobody seems to know why we do what we do
To each other when the times get rough (yes)

I thought that love was plain and simple
But oh what a lie
I've been counting on the one I love
It's not that love breaks my heart
You know love don't love nobody
I guess the level that I loved was too much

Chorus
Ooh, I didn't know
Not to let my love overflow, oh baby
No, I didn't know
Not to let my love overflow

Verse 2
You see there's not many ways around the mountain
For all those who choose to climb
Sometimes it feels like no matter how far I get
The distance is all up to time

See I gave my love my only faith
But oh what a shame
I felt wealthy with my bag of fools' gold
(Bag of fools' gold)
And there is a point when you know
That your love's off the tracks
When the train stops 'cause the engine's too old

Chorus
Ooh, I didn't know
Not to let my love overflow, oh baby
No, I didn't know
Not to let my love overflow

Bridge
I Don't wanna say I lost my faith in love
No, I don't wanna say I've given up on my dreams
I believe in everlasting love, yes I do
(Everlasting love baby)
Just give it to me, what I want
?Cause it's only you, baby

Chorus
Ooh, I didn't know
Not to let my love overflow
(See I didn't know you'd break my heart, yes)
No, I didn't know
Not to let my love overflow

Chorus
Ooh, I didn't know
Not to let my love overflow
(Not to give my all to you, to give my all to you)
No, I didn't know
(What was least expected)
Not to let my love overflow
(Ended up happening, happening)
