Mansions - Curacao Blue lyrics

rate me

I know what shirt you were wearing when I first bared your bones

and in the light of the television, you were my own

did you think I would stay?

did you think I would go?

I was the one to make you aware of the things you ought to know

I was still waiting for the daylight when you appeared

and when I'd wrap my arms around you

I wasn't scared

I know just what I was drinking when I first was untrue

sea air, cheap beer, and some loneliness all mixed with curacao blue

did I think it would stay?

what happens there doesn't go

she was the one to make me aware of the things I ought to know

it was a mistake that caused your heartache

I was just a kid, you should have seen yourself

we were so young, but oh so serious

and I understand exactly why I fell: I didn't really want you or myself
