blue skies

blue skies

calling on blue skies

don't take them away

boys

don't take them away

cause i'll never stop

i've been to both knees

raise my hands up to the skies

forgive me

is something out there far beyond the clouds?

i'm asking help me

help me to see the world

through baby eyes and hold me closely

i need a fresh start on the roller coaster

made for coasting

it's time to wake up

time to make up

time to shake these memories

it's time to leave the past in the past

and lace up a new set of shoestrings

i want the world to know i've got your back

through up and down

see

so we can sit together

side by side

through amazing

blue skies

calling on blue skies

don't take them away

boys

don't take them away

cause i'll never stop

so i've broken every bone

and fought through what felt never-ending

i thought my head was made of sadness

but my heart is mending

i scream at sunsets

give applause to what i can't control

then somehow laugh at how

the moon divides an ocean solo

i wanna be that ocean

i wanna shine like that

i want to smile so big my daughter jumps into my lap

and i wanna tell her daddy's fine

and always plans to be

then take her in my arms

this is what we'll always see

blue skies

calling on blue skies

never take them away

boys

don't take them away

yeah

shhh

and when i'm gone

i won't go screaming in the end

i'll give you everything my life amounts to

so raise your life up with me

and baby

let's go dancing

come on!

blue skies

calling on blue skies

don't take them away

boys

don't take them away

cause i'll never stop

well i've broken every bone

and fought through what felt never-ending

i thought my head was made of sadness

my heart is mending

i scream at sunsets

give applause to what i can't control

then somehow laugh at how

the moon divides an ocean solo

i wanna be that ocean

i wanna shine like that

i want to smile so big my daughter jumps into my lap

and i wanna tell her daddy's fine

and always plans to be

then take her in my arms

this is what we'll always see

just blue skies

keep calling on blue skies

i'll never take them away

little girl

i'll never take them away

cause i'll never stop loving my blue skies
