Blue eyes
I know
Blue eyes
How’d you get so cold?
Cause I don’t know why
Blue eyes
I know
Blue eyes will you ever get back home?
To the love
Of our life
Mother
Father
Please forgive me
I don’t
Wanna
Be a father
The fire’s
Burnin’
I’m a furnace
I’m still breathing
Guess I’m a burden
We don’t talk about it
We don’t talk about anything
We don’t talk about
The family secret
The family secret
Can’t remember a thing ‘cause I never look back
I’m just pushing my weight of my foot on the gas
Adding up fast, but who’s keeping track
I wanna move forward but I’m tied to the past
The inbox is full but I don’t take a look
I just hit deny and delete on the phone
Oh classic games we sit and we wait
Put on a show, then isolate
Put on a show, then isolate
Put on a show, then isolate
Help me Jesus
So help me Jesus
We don’t talk about it
We don’t talk about anything
We don’t talk about
The family secret
The family secret
Where’s the door?
Miniature floors
Oh, where’s the door?
Oh, here’s the floor
And I don’t know where I’m headed
But I do know how to wave goodbye
How hard we love for
How deep will we dive down in the gutter?
'Fore it’s too late to change our minds
One and one and two
At least not all the time
Not always black and white
In between the lines
Blue eyes
I know
Blue eyes
How’d you get so cold?
Said I really don’t know why
Blue eyes
I know
Blue eyes
Will we ever get back home?
To the love
Of your life?
Why don’t we just talk about it?
Why don’t we just talk about anything?
We don’t talk about
The family secret
