Dead, missed all the attention

Should've checked your mentions

(They were saying nice things)

It might've consoled you

Red flags at every dead end

Didn't check your best friends

(Still we found it frightening)

And we would've told you

That love is just practice

We'll keep working at it

(It's true, love)

Love is just practice

We'll keep working at

('Til we're blue love)

You were blue love

You were blue

You were blue love

You were blue

Dressed, washed up on the river

All of your forgivers

(They let you go lightly)

If only they'd shown you

But you just left

What about your brother?

Did he tell your mother?

(Did it hit her like lightning?)

But they would've told you

That love is just practice

We'll keep working at it

It's true, love

Love is just practice

We'll keep working at 'til we're blue love

Love is just practice

No permanent damage can ruin love

Love is just practice

We'll keep working at 'til we're blue love

You were blue love

You were blue

You were blue love

You were blue

Love is just practice

We'll keep working at it

It's true, love

Love is just practice

We'll keep working at 'til we're blue love

Love is just practice, we-

Love is just practice, we-

Love is just practice, we-

Love is just practice, we-

Love is just practice, we'll keep working at it, it's-

Love is just practice, we-

Love is just practice, we-
