Keep on talking all you want
Well you don't waste a minute of time
Who cares, who knows what's true
Coffee and tears the whole night through
Burning up on midnight oil
And it's come right back on you

Freedom Overspill
Freedom Overspill

Force of habit, you could say
The way they talk you're talking away
Who cares, who knows what's true
Your wounded pride is burning you up
Burning up on midnight oil
And it's come right back on you

Freedom Overspill
Freedom Overspill

You're sounding good to me now
Keep talking on
I want to hear the worst
You got no right going around
Talking 'bout the things that you do
Talking 'bout the things that you do
Keep on talking all you want
Well you don't waste a minute of time
Who cares, who knows what's true
Coffee and tears the whole night through
Burning up on midnight oil
And it's come right back on you

Who cares, who knows what's true
Your wounded pride is burning you up
Burning up on midnight oil
And it's come right back on you

I love Steve Winwood so much I want to know what kind of car that was in the clip so I can drive one around listening to his music all day

[nccodyssey]

@NothingnessLove A vintage 80's Ferrari.

[bigworld3001]

Didn't Joe Walsh lend a hand on this one, or am I mistaken?

[nccodyssey]

@bigworld3001 Walsh only co-wroted and played lead guitar on the song "Split Decision" which appeared on the same album.

[sucharadder]

This is a really good song. But what do you suppose, at its beating heart-,.....do you really think it is ABOUT>?

[nccodyssey]

@sucharadder Going by the lyrics, my guess it's about his divorce from his late ex-wife Nicole.

[Kirkstoyota]
