Lyrics
1. Baby Blue
where i've been
i can't recall
no you don't remember me at all
i spend my life
getting high
and thinking of you most the time
i heard your name
in a song
but i thought on for way too long
about a girl
who wasn't you
she don't sparkle the way you do
my baby blue won't you come too
my baby blue won't you come to
when the sky
and sun repeat
i stumble over my lonely feet
i think of where
your face would go
if you'd been too scared to let it show
cuz you remind
me of a ghost
that used to hang around
i haven't seen
her face in days
cuz all i can think about
when i sail out
she flies in
we don't know where we begin
i can't recall
no you don't remember me at all
i spend my life
getting high
and thinking of you most the time
i heard your name
in a song
but i thought on for way too long
about a girl
who wasn't you
she don't sparkle the way you do
my baby blue won't you come too
my baby blue won't you come to
when the sky
and sun repeat
i stumble over my lonely feet
i think of where
your face would go
if you'd been too scared to let it show
cuz you remind
me of a ghost
that used to hang around
i haven't seen
her face in days
cuz all i can think about
when i sail out
she flies in
we don't know where we begin
2. Changing Me
another rainy day
the skies are bare of any songbird that flew
makes it hard to walk away
disguised as anyone that you once knew
but she's quietly changing me
if you listen the city will speak
she'll tell you she's only
in love with the loneliest
poetic know it all kings
yeah that's what she thinks
but she's quietly changing me
she's quietly changing me
these looks are just for show
i'm no one you used to know
will you just sail away
will you just keep on floating by
take this time to walk around
every day you find
you leave behind more of your mind
see the worst lies they can't quite make sounds
it's why i quit your town
the skies are bare of any songbird that flew
makes it hard to walk away
disguised as anyone that you once knew
but she's quietly changing me
if you listen the city will speak
she'll tell you she's only
in love with the loneliest
poetic know it all kings
yeah that's what she thinks
but she's quietly changing me
she's quietly changing me
these looks are just for show
i'm no one you used to know
will you just sail away
will you just keep on floating by
take this time to walk around
every day you find
you leave behind more of your mind
see the worst lies they can't quite make sounds
it's why i quit your town
3. Bad Wine
from the first time your world was serenaded
to the last time you said you wouldn't show
you danced like you were a raindrop
with a sky who loved too much to let you go
we'd run around the city
i held your hand while you were sleeping
we looked for excuses not to wander
under sheets was everything we'd need
we took turns separating heart strings
and kept them for a rainy day in spring
we'd run around the city
i held your hand while you were sleeping
this town is just full of bad wine
you can leave but you're just leaving me behind
this town is just full of bad wine
when the snow fell you watched it from your coffee
and like anything you said you weren't afraid
i know i know that when the snow melts we'll be laughing
built from unaltered faith that time heals everything
did you know that you impressed me
all along you made the best me
to the last time you said you wouldn't show
you danced like you were a raindrop
with a sky who loved too much to let you go
we'd run around the city
i held your hand while you were sleeping
we looked for excuses not to wander
under sheets was everything we'd need
we took turns separating heart strings
and kept them for a rainy day in spring
we'd run around the city
i held your hand while you were sleeping
this town is just full of bad wine
you can leave but you're just leaving me behind
this town is just full of bad wine
when the snow fell you watched it from your coffee
and like anything you said you weren't afraid
i know i know that when the snow melts we'll be laughing
built from unaltered faith that time heals everything
did you know that you impressed me
all along you made the best me
