lyrics

Verse:
A Sunrise smile
Spread across your face
Makes my darkening mind
Feel more like day
Rocks and stones
Built a fortress tall
But you got a foothold
climbing my walls
Chorus:
Smoking, looking at the skyline
Take your picture by the Western Auto sign
I say it’s for the internet
And you say that’s a lie
You’ll be lookin back on what we had
and that, ya can’t deny
Verse:
Dancing close
Will you let me lead?
And mix it up
In this hotel suite
What is this?
I ask you dear
You say you cannot kiss me
But we can share a beer
Chorus:
Smoking, looking at the skyline
Take your picture by the Western Auto sign
I say it’s for the internet
And you say that’s a lie
You’ll be lookin back on what we had
And that, you can’t deny
Can’t deny
Verse:
Sunset wave
On a winter’s night
You led me on
But I’ll be alright
I’ll fly away
in airplane mode
And I will see you there
In my camera roll
Chorus:
Smoking, looking at the skyline
Take your picture by the Western Auto sign
I say it’s for the internet
You say that’s a lie
You’ll be lookin back on what we had
And that, ya can’t deny
Can’t deny
