歌詞
Connotation all excluded.
A beautiful young college student.
A soldier assigned to Fort Drum.
Son of a professor. I stuck out like a sore thumb.
Course I’m nothing like my father.
Surely. You need the intellectual type. Why bother.
Fast forward a whole five years.
I’m still right here. I’d a had no idea.
Close call. Almost headed overseas.
But, I’m sure if I did, you would’ve froze for me.
You know you’re kind of OCD.
When it comes to Holiday gifts or groceries.
You hate me when I’m smoking trees.
Life didn’t turn out the way I hoped to see.
But it’s just how it’s supposed to be.
Yea, it’s just how it’s supposed to be.
Sometimes the blues is just a passing bird.
Why ‘can’t that always be?
Leave? I don’t even know how to.
No telling where I’d be without you.
Laughing aloud trying figure out how
many couple friends that we outlasted, now
too many to count. No wonder why
I had to write this lullaby for my butterfly
with the double colored eyes you’re my honey pie
Don’t ever let ‘em tell you otherwise.
Walt told me maybe I should settle down,
make you my wife, and quit messin’ around.
Good advice. Cliche as it sounds. You’re the
love of my life and I’m glad that I found you.
So many came and went. Some remain a friend.
But, I’ll be damned if I ever bring you pain, again.
You ain’t the same as them. I’m done playin’ the fence.
Baby, I’m ready for the main event.
Sometimes the blues is just a passing bird.
Why ‘can’t that always be?
Tossing aside from your birches crown.
Just enough dark to see
how you’re the light over me.
