[Chorus 1]
Tall eyes, smoking grey shadows
Fall dies, shot the lock off the sky
A thousand goodbyes, can't put it back
That don't mean you can't try
'Cause walking beneath the shade of a cloud
Crying out loud, somebody help me
Figuring out, what do you lose
When you give your heart away
[Verse 1]
Fall guy, it's somebody else
Not I, who was miles away
When it went down, whatever it was
You believe I did, I was readin' the news
Some time to myself, singing the blues
Watching the dryer spin, round and round and round
Minding my p's and q's
[Verse 2]
You say, I'm crazy to lie
But then, it's your opinion
Whether I do, or whether I don't
I'm still plain insane
What do you get when you cross a stream?
Against the light, with a cyclone fence
I can't say for sure, why do you wanna
Chase those accidents?
[Chorus 2]
Tall eyes, smoking grey shadows
Fall dies, shot the lock off the sky
A thousand goodbyes, can't put it back
That don't mean you can't try
At the end of the world
Feeling strangely cool
Tall eyes
Tall eyes
Tall eyes
