Too Good To Be True
faith richards Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is it too good to be true
I want this so much
But don't know if I can trust you
My mind's racing fast
Tryna find the red flags I'm used to
All these green lights
Are they coming too soon
Caught between red and the green and you
I'm stuck in the blue
Blue
You value how I'm feeling
How do you have so much time
Been searching for a reason
For why you'd love a chipped design
Aren't you listening to me now
Screamed all my secrets
Why don't you leave then
Is it too good to be true
I want this so much
But don't know if I can trust you
My mind's racing fast
Tryna find the red flags I'm used to
All these green lights
Are they coming too soon
Caught between red and the green and you
I'm stuck in the blue
I'm stuck in the blue
Stuck in the blue, I'm stuck in the blue baby
I'm stuck in the blue, stuck in the blue
Stuck in the blue
You never tell me that I owe you
Don't you need to refuel
There's safety when I hold ya
You know exactly what to do
Did you fall out of the heavens
Or crawl up from under
I can't help but wonder
Oh, is it too good to be true
I want this so much
But don't know if I can trust you
My mind's racing fast
Tryna find the red flags I'm used to
All these green lights
Are they coming too soon
Caught between red and the green and you
I'm stuck in the blue
I'm stuck in the blue
I'm stuck in the blue, stuck in the blue
I'm stuck in the blue, baby
I'm stuck in the blue
Blue, oh




Stuck in the blue
Is it too good to be true
