Blue Lightning Lyrics by Big Thief

Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe in You

2022

[Intro]
One
One, two, one, two

[Verse 1]
Blue lightning was an autograph signing up the sky
To the question that I had to ask, she only answered, "Why?"
Angelia took the photograph, the moment had to die
Years later, like an epitaph, we read it and we cry
This morning, I went to have a bath, the water ran dry
Clear warning, has it come at last, the time to say goodbye?
Can we make love? Can we hold fast? I really wanna try

[Chorus]
Two-eyed lie, is it fight or fly?
I wanna be the shoelace that you tie
'Til the end, will you be my friend?
I wanna be the wrinkle in your eye
Yeah, I wanna be the vapor gets you high

[Verse 2]
Blue heron, now you're scaring me, you circle and dive
Blue angel, yeah, you're in my dreams, swearing every night
And a spider just beside her, larger than a hill
And it's plain to see if she don't comfort me, the rattlesnake will

[Chorus]
Two-eyed lie, is it fight or fly?
I wanna be the wrinkle in your eye
'Til the end, will you be my friend?
I wanna be the shoelace that you tie
Yeah, I wanna be the vapor gets you high

[Chorus]
Two-eyed lie, is it fight or fly?
I wanna be the shoelace that you tie
'Til the end, will you be my friend?
I wanna be the mountain, kiss the sky
Yeah, I wanna be the vapor gets you high
Yeah, I wanna feel so happy that I cry
Yeah, I wanna be the shoelace that you tie
Yeah, I wanna live forever 'til I die
Yeah, I wanna live forever 'til I die
Yeah, I

[Outro]
Hmm
Gorgeous set, okay, what should we do now?
