In the early 90's i worked in a pub, and the DJ was a into soul music. There was one song in particular that I loved, but I have no idea who it was by or what it was called. I can only remember about 3 lines that went "There's a girl overboard, there's a girl overboard, and i'm drowning in a sea of love".
Any ideas?!

There's a soul song called "girl overboard" but I can't find the lyrics anywhere. i think it was originally by Sam Dees.

ok I dont know the song but have done some googling, and found there are lots of people sang a song called "drowning in a sea of love" , but of the ones i found the one by joe simon seems to be the most likely suspect

Is this Joe Simon - Drowning in the sea of love (Kenneth Gamble/Leon Huff)? No mention of a girl overboard in it:
I’ve been down one time
And I’ve been down two times
But right now I’m drowning
Drowning in a sea of love
I’ve been out here for so very long
I’ve lost all of my direction
Baby when you came my way
I thought I had found my protection
But a strong wind came into my life
It surely took me by surprise
I can’t seem to control these tears
That are falling from my eyes
I’ve been down one time
And I've been down two times
But right now I'm drowning
Drowning in a sea of love
Baby I depended on you
For our love navigation
Now you’ve gone and deserted me
Can’t you see that I'm in desperation
I'm in the middle of a bad love storm
Oh yeah I wasn’t ready for
And I look around and all I see
Is water coming over me
I've been down one time
I've been down two times
But right now I'm drowning
Drowning in a sea of love
I’ve been out here for so very long
I lost all of my direction
Baby when you came my way
I thought I had found my protection
But a strong wind came into my life
It surely took me by surprise
And I can’t seem to control these tears
That are falling from my eyes
I’ve been down one time
And I've been down two times
But right now I'm drowning
Drowning in a sea of love
Drowning in a sea of love
[these are the same lyrics as the B B King version already mentioned]
