Cotton Candy Skies
Sean Bolton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All these cotton candy skies;
They make me think of you.
Almost every part of me
Kind of wishes i would die.
Put me back together,
and find all of my pieces.
I know its hard for you,
but I'm trying to give you reasons
to change me like the seasons.
The way the leaves fall off in autumn,



and we ran around and caught them.
There is nothing that compares
to these cotton candy skies.
My eyes are playing tricks on me.
Cause you were with a different guy.
I was always looking for someone
who made me think of you somehow.
But the color of her eyes
are more than i disguise.
They were like these cotton candy skies;
Changing colors at night.
And by the morning light,
they were far from out of sight.
All these
cotton candy skies.
All these
cotton candy skies.
All these cotton candy skies;
they made me think of you.
Now almost every part of me
kind of wishes i would die.
