| Out of the blue
|
| It all changed in an instant
|
| He was 19 when she told him she was pregnant
|
| Barely out of high school, living in a small town
|
| Neither of them had a job or money in the bank
|
| He got work on the factory floor
|
| Struggeling to make ends meet, but she adored him
|
| Always in his corner when her parents started like
|
| «He won’t ever amount to that much»
|
| The baby arrived, really they tried
|
| She said «let's to the best that we can a day at a time»
|
| He started staying out all night getting drunk
|
| Convinced he couldn’t deal with what he had, what he’s done
|
| He lost his job and that was no surprise
|
| She said «I can’t go on watching you destroy your life
|
| You need to get it together or I’m leaving with our kid»
|
| He said «It's probably best that you left», so she did
|
| So when you gonna learn
|
| It’ll hit you hard
|
| Even if it hurts
|
| And it always does
|
| So when you gonna learn
|
| Let it in your heart
|
| We come together and fall apart
|
| Out of the blue my love
|
| Five years later and she’s living in the city
|
| And she’s severed all contact with her old life
|
| Her little girl’s at school, she was working days
|
| Staying up late and studying through the night
|
| Out of the blue he called up and they talked
|
| He said he’s got a job up north on fishing trawlers
|
| He hadn’t touched a drink for two years, he’d been clean
|
| Plus he saved some money on the side inbetween
|
| He cleared his throat, made an awkward joke
|
| And asked «maybe I could come visit you both
|
| But only if you think it’s alright I mean»
|
| She said she’d think about it, the next day she agreed
|
| So when you gonna learn
|
| It’ll hit you hard
|
| Even if it hurts
|
| And it always does
|
| So when you gonna learn
|
| Let it in your heart
|
| We come together and fall apart
|
| Out of the blue my love
|
| Out of the blue
|
| Out of the blue
|
| Out of the blue my love
|
| He got on a plane and flew across the desert
|
| Watching as the world flew by
|
| It felt like he held his breath from the airport
|
| All the way to her front door the whole time
|
| He knocked soft and she opened up
|
| And they looked at each other both dumb struck
|
| Each waiting for the other one to speak first
|
| But neither of 'em could find any words, then
|
| Out of the blue as if one cue tryna
|
| Hold back the tears in their eyes
|
| And with a voice full of cracks and a heart fit to burst
|
| She said «Well, you took your time»
|
| These moments make up a life time
|
| Mistakes we make are not fixed in stone
|
| People we love are a life line
|
| And none of us can do it on our own
|
| Out of the blue
|
| Out of the blue
|
| Out of the blue
|
| Love saves us
|
| Out of the blue
|
| We all learn that lesson |
