Lyrics Melissa McClelland

Melissa McClelland

Skyway Bridge

We stay up all night

And watch the boats

From underneath the bridge

The trucks fly

And in the bravest moments

I watch you

And we take turns

Looking away

I adore you

I want to follow you

Make a boat out of this cigarette pack

Watch it float away

And hope it comes back

With the water

Under skyway bridge

We balance on the rocks

Scuff up our feet

Back inside the car

Our song is on repeat

And when the air is damp

And filled with morning

We’ll take our cue

Curl up in the backseat

I adore you

I want to follow you

Make a boat out of this cigarette pack

Watch it float away

And hope it comes back

With the water

Under skyway bridge

The steel men rise

And we shut our eyes

Smoke cross the bay

And now we’re driving away

I throw pains and wishes

Up to the sky

Watch them sink to the bottom

And kiss them goodbye

I adore you

I want to follow you

Make a boat out of this cigarette pack

Watch it float away

And hope it comes back
