summer came and it won't burn the same
after the sun dipped down on the longest day.
now when you call, i flicker the flame -
it's indigo today
punched out in a different way
we lost our breath after the longest day
then you tried to tell us it was all ok.
We found ourselves in a round about way.
This color still remains
Punched out in a different shade
Light seeps through skin we thought we knew -
Blinded eyes to blue.
While the corduroy clouds
Are spilling new. without you.
Oh, we shoulda knew.
sparks will fly from your hair
into a new wild is where you bare.
over then under never scared.
if i could visit - i would dare
on an amber flare.
Light seeps through skin we thought we knew -
Blinded eyes to blue.
In the corduroy clouds
We're spilling new. without you.
Oh, we shoulda knew.
do a remainder celebrated steal,
to stress or spare, a butcher's feel.
now I'll meet u when my longest day sets.
now I'll tumble blue, while you watch with no regrets?
but if u could - id like to know - ask to bring a friend in tow?
some would quibble it'd be a double blow.
dripping with years, are u feeling the same?
trickle me timbers, and tame out this game.
toss out these baubles, and devour my troubles.
once and forever we will never crumble. rise from the tumble then fly with a rumble.
you lost your breath that day
then beamed it bright ok.
we found each other in a beautiful way, we'll have that forever............ I'd say.
