Victoria Carbol - Bloodshot

You were the new girl dressed in a Henley
Ears with those spacers that kind of scared me
Hair in a bun and hands on a bass guitar
I was a singer leading the church band
Catching your brown eyes over the mic stand
That was the first time I learned who you are
But that's not why I've
Bloodshot eyes
You know I'm talking 'bout those
Sleepless nights
We said we'd try it once
We tried it twice
Have you forgotten
Bloodshot eyes
I don't sleep thinking
About those times
Your tangled hair, we laughed
Your hands in mine
Have you forgotten
Bloodshot
We had a meeting with some other church staff
You cracked a feminist joke and I laughed
Made them uncomfortable and I was mesmerized
We went for coffee, we went for dinner
Walked to the beach, watched a film and you lingered
They started to question how you owned my time
If they knew why I've
Bloodshot eyes
You know I'm talking 'bout those
Sleepless nights
We said we'd try it once
We tried it twice
Have you forgotten
Bloodshot eyes
I don't sleep thinking
About those times
Your tangled hair, we laughed
Your hands in mine
Have you forgotten
We don't talk about it
We keep it quiet
Don't start a riot
Oh, play it safe but
Do you remember
Ended it in September
You said forever
You left but you've got
Bloodshot eyes
You know I'm talking 'bout those
Sleepless nights
We said we'd try it once
We tried it twice
Have you forgotten
Oh, bloodshot eyes
I don't sleep thinking
About those times
Your tangled hair, we laughed
Your hands in mine
(Don't forget, no regrets, in your head, am I there still)
Have you forgotten
Bloodshot
