All Those Pretty Lights
The wind blows through your hair
As you're walking, people stare
Up the block and down the street to North King's highway
And there's a beating in my chest
That is seeming to suggest
That before this day is through it might go my way
And so I sit back in my seat
Scribble down something that's sweet about a boy
A girl, an endless stretch of scenery
'Cause it's like falling to your knees before a stranger on the street
I did it just the other day
You should have seen me
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
And it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
There's something to be said about the colors in your head
How they mix to form the perfect shade of sadness
And not because of things I've done or any of the songs I've sung
It's just the story of our lives
We wish we had this
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
And it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
And I remember we stayed up way past your bedtime
Up on the second floor
Down by my sliding door
Just innocent kids in a victimless crime
Trapped in a metaphor
Hoping for something more
I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
And it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Oh, just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
And it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
In the sky
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
In the sky
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
As you're walking, people stare
Up the block and down the street to North King's highway
And there's a beating in my chest
That is seeming to suggest
That before this day is through it might go my way
And so I sit back in my seat
Scribble down something that's sweet about a boy
A girl, an endless stretch of scenery
'Cause it's like falling to your knees before a stranger on the street
I did it just the other day
You should have seen me
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
And it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
There's something to be said about the colors in your head
How they mix to form the perfect shade of sadness
And not because of things I've done or any of the songs I've sung
It's just the story of our lives
We wish we had this
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
And it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
And I remember we stayed up way past your bedtime
Up on the second floor
Down by my sliding door
Just innocent kids in a victimless crime
Trapped in a metaphor
Hoping for something more
I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
And it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Oh, just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
And it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
In the sky
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
In the sky
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
