about

You walked in my front door
And it seemed like you wanted to stay
And yes I wanted it more than you
Now you’re running away
With gyspy eyes
It’s impossible today
Well, I’m not surprised
It ended up this way

Whatever we had was a shooting star
Reflections of falling light from afar
Now that light is fading to gray
I’m running away
From gypsy eyes
Past and future they do collide
I tried to take what you could not provide

There’s only one me and only one you
More colors than just red and blue
In this gray area between me and you

We kept on holding on
After our time was gone
No it did not need to be this way
But then you ran away
With gypsy eyes
That’s just how you survive
You push and I pull
We are reverse magnetized

You have to admit it was a lovely fall
And I can’t be too down about what I never had at all
But oh my god if you could have seen what I thought I saw
Now she’s running away with gypsy eyes
Past and future were a dream of mine
But today that’s just a memory and that’s fine

There’s only one me and only one you
More colors than just red and blue
In this gray area between me and you

There’s only one me and only one you
More colors than just red and blue
In this gray area between me and you
