lyrics

A weekend away
So I can get my head on straight
I'm falling fast asleep
But waking up it's always bittersweet
Yeah it's make believe
Every morning give or take
And I need need need
Something to change in me

A chain smoking car
Margot hums on the stereo
I fell asleep in her arms
On an apartment floor
Then I slipped out the back door
To drink with your friend's mom
Was she hitting on me?
Did not know what to think
But I never never felt more alive
Than I did that night

So wait for me on a balcony of clouds
With your hair the same color
And if you fail to see not to bother with the little things
Beneath your skin I know you're still in there
You're somewhere

I bet you never heard me sing
About the Norther Lights and your skyward dreams
But they were oh so real to me
As real as you, as you and I could be

So wait for me on a balcony of clouds
With your hair the same color
And if you fail to see not to bother with the little things
Beneath your skin I know you're still in there
You're somewhere
