Lyrics

You were my Oklahoma baby
I put a ceiling over you
Under skies of atomic blue
You had eyes like gasoline
That glistens in the rain
And I put pavement in your veins
I'm a season that's never-ending
I'm a letter that you never send in
I'm a fever, I'm a phantom limb
That keeps you fatherless
But you're a tiny part of me
And I'm a tiny part of you
And you stand in front of me
And I stand in front of you
There was a time that I thought I could use your heart
As a warm and empty room
There was a time that I thought I didn't need you at all
There was never a time that I didn't love you
[Instrumental]
You were my Oklahoma baby
(I hope you're alright)
(You seem alright)
You were my Oklahoma baby
(I hope you're alright)
(You seem alright)
You were my Oklahoma baby
I put a ceiling over you
Under skies of atomic blue
[Instrumental]
Under skies of atomic blue
