Falling Blue (Non​-​album Track)

from Saved (3​-​track EP) by Bob Collum and the Welfare Mothers

lyrics

FALLING BLUE
I guess we were running out of our league
Coming up for air without the room to breath
With a dime store wristwatch, a pawnshop ring
An empty suitcase and a broken dream

Falling blue under your spell
Staring at the bottom of a wishing well
Tearing through this life like a wrecking ball
I would give you anything to break this fall
I would give you anything to break this fall

This dead end road took us the long way around
From Saint Marks place to this border town
Watching the sunrise through a cracked windshield
With nothing left just borrowed time to kill

Falling blue under your spell
Staring at the bottom of a wishing well
Tearing through this life like a wrecking ball
I would give you anything to break this fall
I would give you anything to break this fall

The truth cut through this empty room
Like the blade of a rusty knife
When you recalled everything you saw
Your life flashed before your eyes
Your life flashed before your eyes

I don’t know where but we took a wrong turn
Lit this fire just to watch it burn
Is it the wasted time or the wasted breathe
Or something new that scared us both to death

Falling blue under your spell
Staring at the bottom of a wishing well
Tearing through this life like a wrecking ball
I would give you anything to break this fall
I would give you anything to break this fall

Falling blue under your spell
Staring at the bottom of a wishing well
Tearing through this life like a wrecking ball
I would give you anything to break this fall
I would give you anything to break this fall

Bob Collum and the Welfare Mothers London, UK

Bob Collum & the Welfare Mothers make a cool noise. How cool you ask? Well, it's kinda alt-country, alot of rock & roll, add a smidgen of folk, and a dash of blues. Stick in a potent dose of guilt, a dollop of sin, a drop of salvation (just one drop), and equal measures of joy and sadness ... more
