Sidewalk Chalk - Blue lyrics

[VERSE 1: Rico Sisney] All she ever saw was ocean Looked out the window in the morning Sun shining She always felt a storm coming Knowing nothing Could hurt in her silk cocoon Nasty taste in her mouth from that silver spoon And her parents had a plan for her since the womb She don't need to be that smart, she'll have her pick of schools Pops could drop a couple names in the interview Abracadabra! Them applications get approved Its pretty typical... And really cyclical... She's getting cynical... But what's a kid to do from up here in her room? [Chorus 1: Marga Marion] Ah….Blue we're looking over Ah…Blue we're looking over [VERSE 2: Rico Sisney] All he ever saw was ocean 30 feet away behind some barb wire Wishing that fence could grow a lot higher Might make the days pa** faster Like they do for all those other kids making sand castles Maybe he should ask them To build a castle tall enough to go over the barbs Won't need this place no more they could open the walls The castle would be big enough for holding them all He could finally meet his dad and say hello to his mom That's what he really hopes... It's really typical... He should be cynical... But he'll learn when he grows better keep that window closed [Chorus 2: Marga Marion] Oh, I'm thankful for what I have, but I want something more Oh, I'm thankful for where I'm at, but I would like to go [Chorus 1] [VERSE 3: Rico Sisney & Marga Marion] Sitting by the blue I contemplate Is it the life I choose, or is it fate Everybody thinks I have it made Is it true? What can I do? Looking out the window questioning If there could be something else for me They say this is all I'll ever be I know there is something more [Rico Sisney] All they ever dreamed was to be like the ocean Ever expanding full of life and motion Seven seas never cease yet they seem out of reach Despite their closeness One day inspiring hope the next reminding it's hopeless Except with refined focus From Côtes des Acardins to Coronado on private beaches Distinct in all of their defining features What lies beneath is two similar souls too free to fit in a mold Who see the limits but want release from umbilical cord [Chorus 2] [Chorus 1]
