about

Folky, jazzy, acoustic beach vibes - Bright Blue is sweet nostalgia. A retrospective love song that both celebrates and mourns the loss of a partner.

lyrics

You of all others never clouded my horizons
Always kept them clear and bright
Where they would put obstacles and optical illusions
You kept it open through day and night

Sometimes the other unknown is tempting
I blamed myself without knowing why
Fins break the surface and keep on swimming
Smartest in the world don’t know wrong from right

When I left us behind to go out on my own
I felt like an animal caged too long
But soon I looked back to see through my bars
That they were never real and the key was ours

Cos you, you alone always knew
How to keep my skies bright blue
Blue
Bright blue
Bright blue
Bright blue

Rainbow dawn knocks at my eyes
Promising gold daylight
Others promised to excite me
But never my soul delight

Well you handled me so carefully
And so freely with such joy
Jokers feed me fun and games
But I am not their toy

I wanted to taste more life
But it was always sweeter with you
You loved enough to let me fly
Another way we were so right
Cos now I’m flying home on stronger wings
With the sweetest song I know how to sing
And every other bird I meet I’m only saying hello, goodbye

Cos you, you alone always knew
How to keep my skies bright blue
Bright blue
Bright blue
Bright blue
Bright blue
Bright blue
Bright blue
Bright blue
