Blue in the Good Way 4

Verse 1

Streetlights hum in a minor key

The taxis idle, half asleep

Your collar's up like a movie spy

Who's hoping to get caught tonight

The neon stutters, then holds still

Your sleeve finds mine on the windowsill

Pre-Chorus

The bass line leans in, low and slow

The sax has seen this, seems to know

The candles tilt their amber glow

Like they've got nowhere else to go

Chorus

Blue in the good way

Blue like a velvet chord

Blue in the good way

Nobody's asking for more

Verse 2

Jasmine drifts in from somewhere near

You turn your glass in a lazy spin

Like the dial on an old radio

Tuning till my voice comes in

The amber lamp rests on your cheek

Like a secret it won't keep

Pre-Chorus

The windows overhead turn gold

The city hums a song it stole

Your hand turns over, open, slow

Like it's the only way to go

Chorus

Blue in the good way

Blue like a velvet chord

Blue in the good way

Nobody's asking for more

Bridge – softer

It's not a love song, not yet

Just a slow hour on a quiet street

Something here is learning its name

Your pulse is keeping the beat

Stay in the blue till the blue is gone

Stay till the gold comes on

Final Chorus

Blue in the good way

Blue like a velvet chord

Blue in the good way

Nobody's asking for more

Outro

They'll say you're looking blue

Tell them it's the good kind

Blue in the good way
