Blue October - Blue Skies


Blue skies
Calling on blue skies
Don't take them away, boys
Don't take them away
Cause I'll never stop I love my...

I've been to both knees
Raise my hands up to the skies, forgive me
Is something out there far beyond the clouds?
I'm asking help me
Help me to see the world
Through baby eyes and hold me closely
I need a fresh start on the roller coaster
Made for coasting
It's time to wake up, time to make up
Time to shake these memories
It's time to leave the past in the past
And lace up a new set of shoestrings
I want the world to know I've got your back
Through up and down, see
So we can sit together, side by side
Through amazing

Blue skies
Calling on blue skies
Don't take them away, boys
Don't take them away
Cause I'll never stop

So I've broken every bone
And fought through what felt never-ending
I thought my head was made of sadness
But my heart is mending
I scream at sunsets
Give applause to what I can't control
Then somehow laugh at how
The moon divides an ocean solo
I wanna be that ocean
I wanna shine like that
I want to smile so big my daughter jumps into my lap
And I wanna tell her daddy's fine
And always plans to be
Then take her in my arms
This is what we'll always see

Blue skies
Calling on blue skies
Never take them away, boys
Don't take them away
Cause I'll never stop I love my...

Blue skies
Calling on blue skies
Don't take them away, boys
Don't take them away
Yeah, shhh

And when I'm gone
I won't go screaming in the end
Cause I'll give you everything my life amounts to
So raise your life up with me
And baby, let's go dancing
Come on! Let's go!

Come on! Come on!

Come on! Yeah! Yeah!

Blue skies
Calling on blue skies
Don't take them away, boys
Don't take them away

Don't take them away
No! No! No!
