The wind blows through your hair
As you're walking people stare
Up the block and down the street
To North King's highway
There's a beating in my chest
And it's seeming to suggest
That before this day is through
It might go my way
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
And I wanna remember this night
Oh, how my words never came out right
Oh, it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all those pretty lights
In the sky
♪
There's something to be said
About the colors in your head
And how they mix to form
The perfect shade of sadness
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, yes
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
Oh, how my words never came out right
Oh, it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all those 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
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
Oh, how my words never came out right
Oh, It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all those pretty lights
Oh, and I wanna remember this night
Oh, how my words never came out right
Oh, it's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights

Oh, in the sky
Oh, in the sky
