Blue Blood
Laurel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blow it up
Let the horses run,
I used to kill for fun
We're filthy rich sitting on the tail end of love.

You woke me up for your blue blood
Made me come undone
Can't believe you've been here the whole time

Too nice to pass you by and I can't believe
You've been here the whole time

You made me feel again
Made me dance circles 'round the pieces of your heart.
You made me feel again
After the last time, didn't think that I could love.

Living by the sea
No one could set me free
Before you came to me I was in a pretty dark place
Praying for the end

So sugar sweet
So easy to make you fall
Hell for leather, hell for sure
Always adore and endure I will love you

To nice to pass you by
And I can't believe
You've been here the whole time

You made me feel again
Made me dance circles 'round the pieces of your heart.




You made me feel again
After the last time, didn't think that I could love
