babyblue

Babyblue was always your colour

It's a little strange how we're seeing each other

But God, you look just as I remember

It's been a few years, but I've known you forever

You packed your bags and moved out to Boston

Needed a place that you could get lost in

Only came home 'cause your mother's not well

You say that time will tell

Tell me how it feels

Now that you got my youth on your bed post

Got my youth in the back of your Jeans

Think of me while you wash 'em clean

Say it ain't so

Now that our picture's getting dusty

You smell vanilla and don't think about me

I hope it's alright, your life without me

You ran to my house in the pouring rain

Just to sleep on the floor beside my bed

And I've cried every damn day since you left

I don't mind if I never get over it

I've been watching reruns, repeating all the lines

Driving down the highway and missing all the signs

I should call my little sister, I worry 'bout her all the time

Tell me how it feels

Now that you got my youth on your bedpost

Got my youth in the back of your closet

Think of me with my face in your locket

Say it ain't so, now that our picture's getting dusty

You get drunk and don't think about me

I hope it's alright, your life without me

You hold other hands, I'm biting my tongue

You're making new plans, while I'm coming undone

And I watch your old films, super-cut reels

Looking at it now, I think I love you still

Steady my breath, I try to be cool

If I never say a word, does it make it less true?

I feel the time go, I fear the unknown

While you laugh with somebody that you met on your phone

Little kids grow, it's getting so old

And all of my anxieties are filling up my diaries

The water ran cold, there's so much I don't know

I think I gotta go, yeah, I think I gotta go

Tell me how it feels

Now that you got my youth on your bed post

Got my youth in the palm of your hand

Think of me in that wedding band

Say it ain't so, now that our picture's getting dusty

You seen green, don't think about me

I hope it's alright, your life without me
