Elliott Bay
Song by Christopher Young
I remember we stole your dad’s car
Drove it down to Elliott Bay
City sleeping, clouds were weeping
Washing all our cares away
I should have been the one to kiss you there
Thought I’d have more time to conquer fear
I’m hanging on the past like it’s ok
But it’s not now that you’ve gone away
Well you got on the plane and I saw you look back
Shouldn’t have let you down that track
Easy to love and hard to forget
Can’t believe I’m not over you yet
Three blocks to the park off Sycamore
Flat on our backs staring holes at the old night sky
Everything was so brand new
And I should have been the one to kiss you there
Thought I’d have more time to see things clear
I’m hanging on the past like it’s ok
But it’s not now that you’ve gone away
Our love was a figure eight but you moved to a different state
Now I’m just a lone daydreamer
Wondering why I couldn't keep her
Well you got on the plane and I saw you look back
Shouldn’t have let you down that track
Easy to love and hard to forget
Can’t believe I’m not over you
Drove it down to Elliott Bay
City sleeping, clouds were weeping
Washing all our cares away
I should have been the one to kiss you there
Thought I’d have more time to conquer fear
I’m hanging on the past like it’s ok
But it’s not now that you’ve gone away
Well you got on the plane and I saw you look back
Shouldn’t have let you down that track
Easy to love and hard to forget
Can’t believe I’m not over you yet
Three blocks to the park off Sycamore
Flat on our backs staring holes at the old night sky
Everything was so brand new
And I should have been the one to kiss you there
Thought I’d have more time to see things clear
I’m hanging on the past like it’s ok
But it’s not now that you’ve gone away
Our love was a figure eight but you moved to a different state
Now I’m just a lone daydreamer
Wondering why I couldn't keep her
Well you got on the plane and I saw you look back
Shouldn’t have let you down that track
Easy to love and hard to forget
Can’t believe I’m not over you
