You smelled like palm trees and cigarettes
You were the tangerine sky after a wildfire
You were a lost thing inside my chest
Loosening my screws and crossing all my wires
How many ways did I say love you
Did I say I love you
But you just couldn't give it back
How many days til the sky was falling
Cause I kept on stalling
I knew I'd have to give you back
You were a Hollywood daydream
A beautiful sad thing
Oh, so blue, baby blue, yeah
You were torn like your ripped jeans
A bird with a bad wing
Oh, so blue, baby blue baby
You were the stranger I knew the best
With those angel eyes, you were a wild liar
I was the savior you never asked for but I tried
And I would until I died, oh
How many ways did I say love you
Did I say I love you
But you just couldn't give it back
You were a Hollywood daydream
A beautiful sad thing
Oh, so blue, baby blue, yeah
You were torn like your ripped jeans
A bird with a bad wing
Oh, so blue, baby blue baby
You were cold like a winter sky
Yeah you're so blue, baby blue, yeah
You were rare like the northern lights
I wonder was it true, was it true, yeah
You were a Hollywood daydream
A beautiful sad thing
Oh, so blue, baby blue, yeah
You were torn like your ripped jeans
A bird with a bad wing
Oh, so blue, baby blue baby
