Fairytale Skies

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The morning sun hits the city ground with a summer's kiss And rolls out light red carpets for our bewildered residents But dawn must be broken and lights must go out Yeah, welcome to my fairytale skies [Verse 2] And kids too drunk to know how young they really are They're kings and queens of newfound scenes singing toxic opera But dawn must be broken and lights must go out Yeah, welcome to my fairytale skies [Chorus] And, oh, how I wish you could see all of this Bring the road that you're on to a stop And if I could, I would come too, but there are other ways to love you And the road that I'm on is enough [Verse 3] An early bird sings welcome home for lovers now They found each other somewhere between Tom Petty and Whiskey Town He pulled out all the lines, she left and let it slide Yeah, welcome to my fairytale skies [Chorus] And, oh, how I wish you could see all of this Bring the road that you're on to a stop And if I could, I would come too, but there are other ways to love you And the road that I'm on is enough [Verse 4] Well, the Vagabond strolls off alone, he's seen and said enough The last sip of pretend champagne and he's ready to take off He's got the road before him, oh, where to next he sighs Before I return to my fairytale skies [Chorus] And, oh, how I wish you could see all of this Bring the road that you're on to a stop And if I could, I would come too, but there are better ways to love you And the road that I'm on is enough [Outro] But I'll be there soon, well, sort of See, I don't believe in shortcuts So the road that I'm on will have to be enough
