Blue and you lean on me

You know that your crushing me

You're soaking and i cannot breathe

You're seeding the clouds

You're building a web cross the night

An unusual night meant for me

Collecting dead rainbows from puddles and mires

Taking them home to warm by the fire

This flower's in bloom

It'll never expire

It's just coming round again

I'm tearing my heart from the seams

I keep tearing my heart on the seams

But i'll keep pushing ya cause i know just where you're going

Yeah i'll be pushing ya till it's to far to get back home

Won't put my soul on strike

Cuz at the speed of light

I can do what i like

Blue and you lean on me

You know that your crushing me

You're soaking but still i can breathe

You're seeding the clouds

You're building a web cross the night

Saved by unusual daydreaming ways

I'm tearing my...

Yeah, i'll keep loving like it's all i've ever known

Yeah, i'll be givin ya till it's too far to get back home

I'll put my heart on strike

Cuz at the speed of light i can be out of sight

Yeah, i'll be lovin ya like it's all i've ever known

Yeah i'll be lovin ya till it's to far to get back home

Won't put my soul on strike

Cuz at the speed of light i can do what i like
