Tangerine Skies

Oh, your eyes
They are sunken ships on either side of your face
You pantomime
And try to change the subject
Saying it’s a waste of time

Ooh, I wish I, I wish I
Ooh, I could take your lives, take your lives
And scatter them like seed out in the garden
And with the Sun’s love and devotion
Resurrect what the winter took away
And the same reasons you run will be the same you stay
I hope you stay, stay

I watched you trade your guilt for cigarettes
Out onto tangerine skies
I could see your breath
You could see mine
Ghost of the things inside

Ooh, I wish I, I wish I
Ooh, I could take your lives, take your lives
And scatter them like seed out in the garden

And scatter them like seed out in the garden
And with the Sun’s love and devotion
Resurrect what the winter took away
And the same reasons you run will be the same you stay
I hope you stay

I wish I, I wish I
Could make you stay
Take your lives, take your lives
And make you stay
I wish I, I wish I
Could make you stay
And take your lives, take your lives
And scatter them like seed out in the garden
