Green was the color of the grass
Where I used to read at Centennial Park
I used to think I would meet somebody there
Teal was the color of your shirt
Green was the color of the grass
Where I used to read at Centennial Park
I used to think I would meet somebody there
Teal was the color of your shirt
When you were sixteen at the yogurt shop
You used to work at to make a little money
[Chorus]
Time, curious time
Gave me no compasses, gave me no signs
Were there clues I didn't see?
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Bad was the blood of the song in the cab
On your first trip to LA
You ate at my favorite spot for dinner
Bold was the waitress on our three-year trip
Getting lunch down by the Lakes
She said I looked like an American singer
[Chorus]
Time, mystical time
Cutting me open, then healing me fine
Were there clues I didn't see?
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Bridge]
A string that pulled me
Out of all the wrong arms, right into that dive bar
Something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire
Chains around my demons
Wool to brave the seasons
One single thread of gold
Tied me to you
[Verse 3]
Cold was the steel of my axe to grind
For the boys who broke my heart
Now I send their babies presents
Gold was the color of the leaves
When I showed you around Centennial Park
Hell was the journey but it brought me heaven
[Chorus]
Time, wondrous time
Gave me the blues and then purple-pink skies
And it's cool
Baby, with me
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Outro]
(Ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah)
Green mal farbu trávy
Kde som kedysi čítal v Centennial Park
Kedysi som si, že by som sa s niekým stretnúť tam
Teal mal farbu košele
Keď ste boli šestnásť v jogurte obchode
Ste boli zvyknutí na prácu, aby sa trochu peňazí
[Chorus]
Doba, zvedavý čas
Dal mi žiadne kompasy, dal mi žiadne známky
Boli tam stopy som nevidel?
A nie je to len tak celkom myslieť
Celú dobu tam bola nejaká
Invisible string
Viazanie vás ku mne?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Bad bola krv piesne v kabíne
Na svoju prvú cestu do Los Angeles
Ste jedli na moje obľúbené miesto na večeru
Bold bol servírka v našej trojročnej cesty
Získanie obed dole pri jazere
Povedala, že vyzerám ako americký spevák
[Chorus]
Doba, mystický čas
Rezanie me otvorený, potom sa mi hojí fine
Boli tam stopy som nevidel?
A nie je to len tak celkom myslieť
Celú dobu tam bola nejaká
Invisible string
Viazanie vás ku mne?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Most]
Reťazec, ktorý ma vytiahol
Zo všetkých zlých ramien rovno do tej ponoru baru
Niečo zabalené všetky moje minulé chyby v ostnatým drôtom
Reťaze okolo mojich démonoch
Vlna statočný ročné obdobie
Jediný závit zlata
Zviazané, aby som vás
[Verse 3]
Cold bol oceľový mojej sekeru na mletie
Pre chlapcov, ktorí zlomil srdce
Teraz som poslať svoje deti darčeky
Zlato bolo farba listov
Keď som ti ukázal okolo Centennial Park
Hell bola cesta, ale to mi priniesol nebo
[Chorus]
Čas, úžasná doba
Dal mi blues a potom fialovo-ružové neba
A to je v pohode
Baby, so mnou
A nie je to len tak celkom myslieť
Celú dobu tam bola nejaká
Invisible string
Viazanie vás ku mne?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
ma
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Outro]
(Ah-ah)
(Ah-ah)
