Blue Style

You set your watch over the stove
To get a drop on the night
We smoked on the graveyard stones
Where it was dark and quiet

I couldn't solve for the third door
And what lay behind it
Never know what's in store
But it's not for lack of trying

Some kind of structure deconstructed
To presume a life complete
I looked to my own confidences
For a shadow friend in retreat

Now we're going in blue style
We're going in blue style

You took off for summer days
And just before your flight
Scribbled your number on my pack
To keep you close at mind

I couldn't solve for the third door
And what lay behind it
Never know what's in store
But I hear there's been a sighting

Some kind of structure deconstructed
To presume a life complete
I looked through easy critics
Of happiness on receipt

Now we're going in blue style
We're going in blue style

You took me to a basement party
A floor made deep in sand
And some song about a Love Shack
With everybody dancing

I couldn't solve for the third door
And what lay behind it
Never know what's in store
But my thinking's not compliant

Some kind of structure deconstructed
To presume a life complete
I looked up where the corner walls
Took stock of the ceiling

Now we're going in blue style
We're going in blue style

Some kind of structure deconstructed
To presume a life complete
I looked into face value
Of everything that I feel

Now we're going in blue style
We're going in blue style
