All Those Pretty Lights (Alternate Universe Version)

All Those Pretty Lights (Alternate Universe Version) - Andrew Belle

The wind blows through your hair

As you're walking people stare

Up the block and down the street to North King's highway

There's a beating in my chest

And it's seeming to suggest

That before this day is through it might go my way

So I sit back in my seat

I scribble down something that's sweet about a boy

A girl

An endless stretch of scenery

'Cause it's like falling to

Your knees before a stranger on the street

Did it just the other day

You should have seen me

And I wanna remember this night

And how my words never came out right

It's just my patience that keeps me alive

Just like all those pretty lights

Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

There's something to be said about the colors in your head

And how they mix to form the

Perfect shade of sadness

Not because of things I've done

Or any of the songs I've sung

It's just the story of our lives

We wish we had this

Oh

And I wanna remember this night

And how my words never came out right

It's just my patience that keeps me alive

Just like all those pretty lights

Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

And I remember we stayed up way past your bedtime

Up on the second floor

Down by my sliding door

Just innocent kids in a victimless crime

Trapped in a metaphor

Hoping for something more

And I wanna remember this night

And how my words never came out right

It's just my patience that keeps me alive

Just like all those pretty lights

Just like all the pretty lights

And I wanna remember this night

And how my words never came out right

It's just my patience that keeps me alive

Just like all those pretty lights

Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

Just like all those pretty lights

Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

In the sky

In the sky
