Story behind the song
Band Overboard was actually written about a month before Jeff joined the band. Alex (on guitar) and Matt (on Bass) had done early recordings of the song, which were written over the course of 3 nights at about 1 o'clock in the morning. Once Jeff had joined the band was able to add drums. The song was written for a 3 piece band, but once grant joined the band, we simply told him to do some good pedal effect, and he defiantly pulled that off.
Lyrics
This Black heart belongs, to you
(Look down on me, look down on me, we were so free, we were so free)
This red rose looks, brand new
(Look down on me, look down on me, were on the edge, were losing it)
We'll make the best of what's around. We'll make the best of what's in town.
We'll make the best of what's around. Because now were all feeling pretty down.
This Black heart belongs, to you
(Look down on me, look down on me, we were so free, we were so free)
This red rose looks, brand new
(Look down on me, look down on me, what happened to, you and, you and me)
We'll make the best of what's around. We'll make the best of what's in town.
We'll make the best of what we have. Because hell were all felling pretty down.
