Baby Blue

Baby Blue
You smelled like palm trees and cigarettes
you were the tangerine sky after a wildfire
you were a lost thing inside my chest
loosening my screws and crossing all my wires
how many ways did i say love you
did i say i love you
but you just couldn’t give it back
how many days til the sky was falling
cause i kept on stalling
i knew i’d have to give you back

you were a hollywood day dream
a beautiful sad thing
oh so blue baby blue, yeah
you were torn like your ripped jeans
a bird with a bad wing
oh so blue baby blue baby
baby blue
baby blue
you were the stranger I knew the best
with those angel eyes, you were a wild liar
i was the savior you never asked for but I tried
and i would until i died oh h
ow many ways did i say love you
did i say i love you
but you just couldn’t give it back
you were a hollywood daydream
a beautiful sad thing
oh so blue baby blue, yeah
you were torn like your ripped jeans
a bird with a bad wing
oh so blue baby blue
you were cold like a winter sky
yeah you’re so blue baby blue yeah
you were rare like the northern lights
I wonder was it true, was it true yeah
you were a hollywood daydream
a beautiful sad thing
oh so blue baby blue, yeah

you were torn like your ripped jeans
a bird with a bad wing
oh so blue baby blue
baby blue
