Lyrics Melissa McClelland

Melissa McClelland

Pretty Blue

Pretty blue

On my way

Smoke a hundred cigarettes

Charm the gas station boy

Buy you a pack of Nicorette

I'm your missionary

Your guru

I'm your God

I've been saving you all along

Park the car

Rehearse my lines

Say the right things at the right times

Love you so

Miss you not

Gonna wait in the parking lot

Take a moment and gaze up

through the sunroof

And reach up through the say

To the stars

From the confines of this car

And I'm gone

Like a thief escaping in the dark

But I'm stumbling blindly

And I'm trapped in the night

Goodbye my pretty blue sky

Stole away

Almost night

Through plexiglass we fight

Count the stars

What a mess

This universe

This life

And I glide through the open window

So I can touch the sky

The stars

From the confines of this car

And I'm gone

Like a thief escaping in the dark

But I'm stumbling blindly

And I'm trapped in the night

Goodbye my pretty blue sky

The sky is falling

Scattered stars

Like pieces of my youth

These are my scars tearing

I've got to heal myself

Not you

Home sweet home

A week to go

Gonna get some sleep now
