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 girlWater 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 girlAnd I've been waiting for so long
To hold you in my arms
Embrace forever, my sweet girlYou 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 beDear, black goodbye
(Goodbye)
Don't forget to write
Your name inside of my lifeAnd I know it's hard to make this work
When you're all aloneI'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
