Lyrics

Man Overboard

[Chorus]

Man overboard, sinking in a sea of love

Man overboard, he jumped, didn't need a shove

Oh, I've been sailing the sea of love, experiencing romance

With what I know (With what I know), he never stood a chance (Ooh, ooh)

He gave it all for love (He gave it all for love)

He gave it all for love (He gave it all for love)

[Chorus]

Said, "Lower the boats, he's sinking in a sea of love

Lower the boats, he's sinking in a sea of love"

Yeah, I've been sailing the sea of love, experiencing romance

With what I know (With what I know), he never stood a chance

[Break]

No, man overboard (Man overboard)

Man overboard

Man overboard (Man overboard)

Man overboard

Throw him a line

Man overboard

[Outro]

He gave it all for love (He gave it all for love)

(He gave it) He gave it all for love

(Man overboard, he gave it) He gave it all for love (He gave it all for love)

(He gave it) He gave it all for love

(Man overboard, he gave it) He gave it all for love (He gave it all for love)

(He gave it) He gave it all for love (Man overboard)

(He gave it)
