lyrics

Our river’s growing thin, I don’t want to see it all run dry
Let’s plunge deep within, carry us up to the summer sky
On a breeze rolling by
I don’t wanna touch the ground again

Like a fruit newly picked, let’s take good care of this
Don’t let it touch the ground, let’s cradle it
A newborn sunrise
To deep blues and back again

But our firecracker was a dud,
Never lit, never took off
Let’s go back to where we began

The moon turned blue for us
Oh, the moon turned blue for us

If I was born a farmer’s son, never would have made this mistake
Would’ve put my ear to the ground, said No let’s wait
Give ‘em time, I’d say
Let’s put them in the ground again.

Before our eyes they’ll grow, tall and strong the pride of the sun
And when they’re ripe we’ll put them in our bags for days to come
Hide them in our veins
Till they’re found again

And our firecracker might light up
The sky might change its tone for us
Let’s keep our eyes open till we’re blind

The moon turned blue for us
Oh, the moon turned blue for us
