She Says (The Black Eyed Blues)

Looking for reasons

To believe instead of doubt

A way in instead of out

There's got to be a reason

Looking for answers

For the hatred and the pain

When they both start to feel the same

There's got to be a reason

Only one breath at a time, she says

All my tears are falling on the floor, she says

I've never felt it rain like this before, she says

I'll sing these black eyed blues into the storm instead

I'll be waiting for the new eyes to arrive

One breath at a time

Kings and queens and little dreams

Are stuck inside these nightmares sometimes, sometimes

And the fairy tales we play

Seem so far away from where she was tonight

Sometimes

I hear her talking to herself in bed

All my tears are falling on the floor, she says

I've never felt it rain like this before, she says

I'll sing these black eyed blues into the storm instead

I'll be waiting for the new eyes to arrive

One breath at a time

Oh, one breath at a time

Oh, one breath at a time

Oh, one breath at a time

Oh, and I'm holding on to you

And I won't let go

The world is torn in two

But I won't let go

You're the only thing that's true

In this whole world of black eyed blues

And disillusioned points of view

When the pain feels like a knife, she says

I'm not giving up tonight, she says

Oh, she says

Oh, she says

I'll be waiting for the new eyes to arrive, she says

She says

Oh, she says

Oh, she says

Oh, she says

I'll be waiting for the new eyes to arrive
