Luke Eelman - Still Blue Lyrics

The sun's only high for a little while
But it can take the sting out of every mile
While it's here, I'll look for a smile
We'll take what we can get, and try hard not to forget
I can't answer for you, but I'm gonna go while the water's still blue
When lightning comes, it comes in a flash
If you close your eyes, won't see it go past
It lights up the night, but you know it can't last
It turns night into day, but it can't stay that way
I can't answer for you, but I'm gonna go while the water's still blue
The rose on the vine only blooms in the spring
So fleeting and brief is the beauty it brings
Enduring's the pain of the thorn when it stings
But the pleasure is worth the pain, and the memory of it remains
I can't answer for you, but I'm gonna go while the water's still blue
The stars in the sky, they shine by night.
I sit in the grass, lost in their light
But all too soon, they vanish from sight
The spell is broken at dawn, and we have to carry on
I can't answer for you, but I'm gonna go while the water's still blue
