Your Orange and Blues

You are impossible
Tree uprooted but bearing fruit
For those bad men to pull
You'd think you'd been damned by god
To a life of loving just anybody
Who passes along
Yet time moves back and forth
From those older bodies to those younger bodies
We lived in before

I'm so out of tune
With your orange and blues
But yours was the truest
Love i ever had

A morning i warmly recall
See you in that kitchen with that floral printing
That patterned the wall
You fought on that telephone
It sounded so one-sided, you hung up crying
"just leave me alone"
You said "time still marches on
The beauty drains from these ugly faces
As quick as it comes"

You're harsh with your words
When you're begging to be heard
But even at your worst
Babe, you're really not bad

I'm so out of tune
With your orange and blues
Yet yours was the truest
Love i ever had

But maybe we should talk about that night
When last you came passing through my life
We agreed it'd be the first and only time
But lately i can't put you from my mind
Can't help feeling like you're feeling like i do
With them orange and blues, them orange and blues and all
I've got them orange and blues, them orange and blues and all
Goddamn orange and blues, them orange and blues and all...
