Lyrics

Orlando Weeks — Big Skies, Silly Faces

We talk and talk, but never get the fever

They're not even words that you're saying

But you say 'em like you're so sure

We climb to the very top

For all there is to see there

Mustn't make a bad time worse

But I swear we used to see more

No stopping this sky, high as it's wide
