Lyrics
Atlantic Blue
I woke up with my arms stretched wide
to you
Atlantic blue
Seashore snowing
Planes rush by overhead
How come you're not in my bed?
Pacific blue
The sun shines brightly down on you
Pacific Blue
Forever captured in the still light
Still life pictures of you and I
Can't seem to get you out and I'm....
Turning
Turning
Turning away from you now
Atlantic blue
I woke up with my arms stretched wide
to you
