lyrics

Lately, it doesn’t seem so important
Maybe I’m overthinking it
Tell me what you’re on about lately
‘Cause I

Found myself in a new conversation
Always seems to go like this
Can’t shake the feeling that I’m fine

I wanna see those green eyes
‘Cause when I do, I know I’ll be alright
Yeah, I wanna see a clear sky
‘Cause if I do I know I’ll be just fine

Spend a few on a new guilty pleasure
Tell myself I deserve it
Waste away and I’m asking myself why

Passing thoughts like clouds in a blue sky
Yet I cling to all of them
Tell me how to let go of the time

I wanna see those green eyes
‘Cause when I do, I know I’ll be alright
Yeah, I wanna see a clear sky
‘Cause if I do I know I’ll be just fine
