Cranes in the Sky

[Verse 1]

I tried to drink it away

I tried to put one in the air

I tried to dance it away

I tried to change it with my hair

[Verse 2]

I ran my credit card bill up

Thought some new shoes would make it better

I tried to work it away

But that just made me even sadder

[Verse 3]

I tried to keep myself busy

I ran around in circles

Think I made myself dizzy

I slept it away, I sexed it away

I read it away

Away

[Refrain]

Away, away, away, away, away

Away, away, away, away, away

[Chorus]

Well, it's like cranes in the sky

Sometimes, I don't wanna feel those metal clouds

Yeah, it's like cranes in the sky

Sometimes, I don't wanna feel those metal clouds

[Verse 4]

I tried to run it away

Thought then my head'd be feeling clearer

I traveled seventy states

Thought moving 'round'd make me feel better

[Verse 5]

I tried to let go my lover

Thought if I was alone then maybe I could recover

To write it away or cry it away (Don't you cry, baby)

Away

[Refrain]

Away, away, away, away, away

Away, away, away, away, away

[Chorus]

But it's like cranes in the sky

Sometimes, I don't wanna feel those metal clouds

Yeah, it's like cranes in the sky

Sometimes, I don't wanna feel those metal—

[Refrain]

Away, away, away, away, away

Away, away, away, away, away

Away, away, away, away, away

Away, away, away, away, away

Away, away, away, away, away

Away, away, away, away, away
