Pages (Acoustic)

[Verse 1]

Hey love, wait up

I think the call is breakin' up

I drove my car into the dirt

Can you pull me out? I'm kinda stuck

I miss my friends and the way it was

They've got big plans and city jobs

The truth is, I'm still kinda lost

My parents split, now they don't talk

But I guess that they aren't heroes

We'll all make the same mistakes

We'll drink because our hearts are heavy

We'll try to smoke it all away

And all the things that are meant to shape us

Only bend and burn and break

Used to wish that I was famous

Now I wanna run away 'cause I'm 'bout

[Chorus]

Two years from thirty

And life scarеs me more each day

I'vе got a man that swears he loves me

But I'm afraid that he won't stay

So I drive out to the ocean

Just to wash my blues away

Takes me back to all the places

Feels like I'm flickin' through the pages

[Verse 2]

Blue skies, long roads

Stopped the car in Idaho

Motel rooms and Super 8s

Capturin' the golden days

I miss you and me in winter time

Log fires, sippin' mulled wine

How easy I lose sight of the good old times

Thinkin' back to when I was in New York

Fallin' in love with my future

In the back of a bar playin' snooker

Got in trouble with my Scottish humour

'Cause the jokes don't land, I just sound kind of mean

And I felt so bad, I stayed up all night

Thinkin' how it's crazy that we

[Pre-Chorus]

We fall in love so quickly

But the movin' on is slow

I'm a master at commitment

I'm a novice at letting go

And all the songs played on my car rides

Know me better than my ghosts

See, I open like a passport

Shut you out like border control, and I'm

[Chorus]

Two years from thirty

And life scares me more each day

I've got a man that swears he loves me

But I'm afraid that he won't stay

So I drive out to the ocean

Just to wash my blues away

Takes me back to all the places

Feels like I'm flickin' through the pages

[Outro]

Hold my heart

Wash the blues away

It's been hard

If I'm honest, babe

These scars

They hurt me more each day

Feels like I'm flickin' through the pages
