Overload - Alfie Zappacosta
Dirty Dancing · Ultimate Dirty Dancing
I can hear your heels clicking on the sidewalk
Beating to the rhythm of my heart
Caught up in you
You're the only one I want
I follow you home every night
Just to make sure that you get there alright
Baby it's true
Can't think of anything but you
And what I need baby
Is a little bit of sympathy
Chorus:
You got me on my knees
I burn throughout the night
And you know I can't live without your love
Won't You help me cure this overload
Won't You help me cure this overload
Oh, you got to know
You see me everywhere that you go
Doesn't that say something
Obsession's taken hold of me, yeah
All because of you
You've got to see me through
Can't take another night alone without you
Honey, it's true
I am so hung up on you
What I need baby
Is a little of your company
Chorus
And what I need baby
Is a little of your sympathy
Chorus
