Fairytale Skies

[Verse 1]
The morning sun hits the city ground with a summer's kiss
And rolls out light red carpets for our bewildered residents
But dawn must be broken and lights must go out
Yeah, welcome to my fairytale skies

[Verse 2]
And kids too drunk to know how young they really are
They're kings and queens of newfound scenes singing toxic opera
But dawn must be broken and lights must go out
Yeah, welcome to my fairytale skies

[Chorus]
And, oh, how I wish you could see all of this
Bring the road that you're on to a stop
And if I could, I would come too, but there are other ways to love you
And the road that I'm on is enough

[Verse 3]
An early bird sings welcome home for lovers now
They found each other somewhere between Tom Petty and Whiskey Town
He pulled out all the lines, she left and let it slide
Yeah, welcome to my fairytale skies

[Chorus]
And, oh, how I wish you could see all of this
Bring the road that you're on to a stop
And if I could, I would come too, but there are other ways to love you
And the road that I'm on is enough

[Verse 4]
Well, the Vagabond strolls off alone, he's seen and said enough
The last sip of pretend champagne and he's ready to take off
He's got the road before him, oh, where to next he sighs
Before I return to my fairytale skies

[Chorus]
And, oh, how I wish you could see all of this
Bring the road that you're on to a stop
And if I could, I would come too, but there are better ways to love you
And the road that I'm on is enough

[Outro]
But I'll be there soon, well, sort of
See, I don't believe in shortcuts
So the road that I'm on will have to be enough
