Nellie Mckay - Bruise on the Sky lyrics

The New York Times invents the news I did not see where they were goin' Behind the dyin' afternoon I follow restlessly devoted Tell me your mind Tell me you'll always follow Send me a sign Send me a smile like Charo I need your lovin' eyes At least your cyanide I had a dream I saw a rainbow I could have sworn I saw the sun pa** by I had a dream I saw the pain go But what I hoped would be my rainbow Was just a bruise on the sky Hide in my closet feelin' trapped This used to be a prime location The heavens clap and then collapse A melancholy invocation Tell me your mind Tell me you'll always follow Send me a sign Send me a smile like Charo I need your lovin' eyes At least your cyanide I had a dream I saw a rainbow I could have sworn I saw the sun pa** by I had a dream I saw the pain go But what I hoped would be my rainbow Was just a bruise on the sky I used to think about it When I say think, I mean satirize I was extreme about it My dreams would bleed on the sun street cries As if my whole darn soul Was gripped in atomic eyes I had a dream I saw a rainbow I could have sworn I saw the sun pa** by I had a dream I saw the pain go But what I hoped would be my rainbow Was just a bruise on the sky Bruise on the sky Just a bruise on the sky
