V6

[Short Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1, close-mic, dry baritone, conversational] Three pictures flat on the table I can still smell that cabin air Braid resting on your right shoulder Confetti dress, and your curly hair Bare arms, warm in the fire light Quiet mouth, and that far-off stare I keep telling myself I'm just looking Why'd I leave those pictures there? [Pre-Chorus, slightly fuller] I keep telling myself I'm just looking But looking turned into something else Every version of you on this table Got me singing to myself [Chorus, soft stack under, breathy] Your eyes so blue Your eyes so blue Your skin so smooth Your skin so smooth [Verse 2, rhythmic, still dry] Tent poles, sky gone peach Black strapless, napkin creased Pearl on the lobe catching dusk Your red lip stick doing so much Looking straight ahead and smiling That night we all was wil'ing I keep telling myself I'm just looking Why'd I leave those pictures there? [Pre-Chorus] I keep telling myself I'm just looking But looking turned into something else You wear beauty like it ain't heavy And I already know what I want [Chorus, stacked whispers L/R] Your eyes so blue Your eyes so blue Your skin so smooth Your skin so smooth (so smooth) [Bridge, closer, almost whispered] Oh, that night at the radiohead show. Curls lit up, in a holy glow Freckles scattered on your shoulder I want to kiss em off, even as we get older Looking to the side and smiling That night we all was wil'ing I keep telling myself I'm just looking Why'd I leave those pictures there? [Final Chorus, soft harmony under, falsetto air] Your eyes so blue Your eyes so blue Your skin so smooth Your skin so smooth (every version of you) Your eyes so blue Your eyes so blue Your skin so smooth (hold still) [Outro, Strat lead under, decaying] Your eyes so blue (so blue) Your skin so smooth (so smooth) Don't change Your eyes so blue
