Lyrics

Blue and you lean on me
You know that you're crushing me
You're sulking and I can not breathe
You're sitted in the clouds
You're building a well cross the light
An unusual nightmare for me

Collecting dead rainbows
From puddles on my hills
Taken home to warm by the fire
The flower's in bloom
It will never expire
It's just coming round again

I'm tearing my heart from the seams
I keep tearing my heart on the seams

But I'll keep pushing you 'cause I know just where you've gone
Yeah I'll be pushing you till it's too far to get back home
Will put my soul on stride
'Cause at the speed of light
I can do what I like

Blue when you lean on me
You know that you're crushing me
You're sulking but still I can breathe
You're sitted in the clouds
You're building a well cross the light
Say by an unusual daydreaming way

I'm tearing my heart from the seams
I keep tearing my heart at the seams

But I keep pushing you 'cause I know just where you've gone
Yeah I'll keep pushing you till it's too far to get back home
Will put my soul on stride
'Cause at the speed of light
I can do what I like

Yeah I'll be loving you like it's all I've ever known
Yeah I'll be giving up till it's too far to get back home
I put my heart on stride
'Cause at the speed of light
I can be out of sight

Yeah I'll be loving you like it's all I've ever known
Yeah, I'll be loving you till it's too far to get back home
Will put my soul on stride
'Cause at the speed of light
I can do what I like..
