Bleed these colors open wide
Burning blues from butterflies
(Tonight we, tonight we fly)
Flying faster through the night
Until the orange of morning light
(Dear, black goodbye, dear, black goodbye)
I know it's hard to make this work
When you're all alone
(Alone)
And I've been waiting for so long
To hold you in my arms
Embrace forever, my sweet girl
Water fills these open eyes
(Tonight we fly)
Still frames and valentines
Won't keep me in her mind
(Dear, black goodbye, dear, black goodbye)
I know it's hard to make this work
When you're all alone
(Alone)
And I've been waiting for so long
To hold you in my arms
Embrace forever, my sweet girl
And I've been waiting for so long
To hold you in my arms
Embrace forever, my sweet girl
You are the ghost of everything that I'm not
And I want to be
You are the ghost of everything that I'm not
And I want to be
Dear, black goodbye
(Goodbye)
Don't forget to write
Your name inside of my life
And I know it's hard to make this work
When you're all alone
I've been waiting for so long
To hold you in my arms
And I've been waiting for so long
To hold you in my arms
Embrace forever, my sweet girl
