Lyrics
Turning all the turtles over
Left our roses red
I got blue and loosey-goosey
You went robin’s egg
Every day
We woke up just in case
Hair to comb in place
And a plan to fall apart
Inasmuch
You gave me all your trust
At least to the me I was
And kinda still now and then
To hear you tell it now
Sounds like a thorny crown
With the Jesus all dumped out
Late at night by the road
Milk gets spilled
All these shoes get filled
When all our time is killed
Don’t you wanna say
We did it for love
When that’s what it was
If that’s what it was
Whatever it was
You got blue and loosey-goosey
I went robin’s egg
The only song I knew
Was the one I sang to you
At least to the you I knew
With all your curtains closed
Disagree
But I pushed out to sea
With only guarantees
They just broke like bread
Hands in the cookie jar
Then we played our cards
Right over the handlebars
Until we both said “whoa!”
“Whoa!”
We did it for love
When that’s what it was
If that’s what it was
Whatever it was
Easy dreaming ain’t so harmless
Some go to your head
You got blue and loosey-goosey
I went robin’s egg
I got mostly namby pamby
You went robin’s egg
You got blue and loosey-goosey
I went robin’s egg
I got way more wabi sabi
You went robin’s egg
You got blue and loosey-goosey
I went robin’s egg
