Album: North
Year: 2012
Genre: Alternative
Mood: Chill, but with conviction
I have yet to hear a song that has the title "Overjoyed" that i do not like. Jars of Clay and Stevie Wonder recorded songs that bear the title and boy were they damn good songs. Now Matchbox Twenty produces a song with this title and they do it justice as well. The rhythm is mellow and the tempo is slow. Its words are easy to listen to and you wouldn't be able to resist yourself from singing along to it.
The songs talks about a guy who is in love. He serenades his girl with sweet words and promises, and reassures her that everything is going to be fine. Boys, be careful before you start dedicating this song to your girl because if you cant live up to the song's lyrics, she's going to hate you and this song! This is one of those songs that is a treat to listen to when you are all happy and in love and its a pain in the ears when you are angry and heart-broken so use it carefully.
Lyrics:
"Overjoyed"
Feeling my hands start shaking
Hearing your voice I'm overjoyed
I'm sorry but i have no choice
You're only getting better
Maybe you have your reasons
Maybe you're scared you'll be let down
Are you crying when there's no one around
Then maybe
Maybe if you hold me baby
Let me come over
I will tell you secrets nobody knows
I cannot overstate it
I will be overjoyed
The smile on your face like summer
The way that your hand keeps touching mine
Let me be the one that make it right
And maybe
Maybe let me hold you baby
Let me come over
I will tell you secrets nobody knows
I cannot overstate it
I will be overjoyed
And if you want, we'll share this life
Anytime you need a friend I'm gonna be by your side
When nobody understands you
Well, I do
So maybe let me hold you baby
Let me come over
I will tell you secrets God only knows
I cannot overstate it
I will be overjoyed
Baby
Let me come over
I will tell you secrets nobody knows
I cannot overstate it
I will be overjoyed
Well, I will be overjoyed
Well, I will be overjoyed
