Lyrics

Blue on blue

What's happening to me?
Is it happening to you?
Look over there
Sky meets the sea
Blue on blue

You wanna be free
What do you do?
Get yourself where
Sky meets the sea
Blue on blue

I hurt so much
I didn't understand
I needed
sun and sea
and you beside me
on the sand

A tropical night
What do you do?
Look at the stars
ever so bright
Me and you

Out on the sea
A boat sailing through
Take us away
Just you and me
Blue on blue

From

Minimal
