"Blue Skies" lyrics

"Blue Skies"

Snake on my hand, draw a line in the sand
I left holding on long ago
I sit at the bar, hate thinking too hard
Beats searching for love, I suppose

Southern sun in my eyes, the lights left behind
I traveled enough in my day
Yeah, my feet are tired, too much dirt in my tires
"Hang it all up," some might say

Goodbye blue skies
Blue skies
Listen to the drunks and doggies
Sing along and cry
Blue skies

Save me your tears, I'm happier here
Yeah, I could find peace in this place
Our story erased, back to back and ten paces
Walk off, never knowing my face

So let it be known, I'm not coming home
Got some memories I gotta drown
Forget all my lovers, guess red is my colour
No more blue skies to be found

Goodbye blue skies
Blue skies
Listen to the drunks and doggies
Sing along and cry
Blue skies

It's time to go, how it flies, yeah, I know
The ink's almost dry, now I'm bound
Forget all my lovers, guess red is my colour
No more blue skies to be found
