Song lyrics

[Verse 1:]
Green was the color of the grass
Where I used to read at Centennial Park,
I used to think I would meet somebody there.
Teal was the color of your shirt
When you were sixteen at the yogurt shop,
You used to work at to make a little money.

[Chorus:]
Time, curious time,
Gave me no compasses, gave me no signs,
Were there clues I didn't see?
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?

[Verse 2:]
Bad was the blood of the song in the cab
On your first trip to LA,
You ate at my favorite spot for dinner.
Bold was the waitress on our three-year trip
Getting lunch down by the Lakes,
She said I looked like an American singer.

[Chorus:]
Time, mystical time,
Cutting me open, then healing me fine,
Were there clues I didn't see?
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?

[Bridge:]
A string that pulled me
Out of all the wrong arms, right into that dive bar,
Something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire,
Chains around my demons,
Wool to brave the seasons,
One single thread of gold
Tied me to you.

[Verse 3:]
Cold was the steel of my axe to grind
For the boys who broke my heart,
Now I send their babies presents.
Gold was the color of the leaves
When I showed you around Centennial Park,
Hell was the journey but it brought me heaven.

[Chorus:]
Time, wondrous time
Gave me the blues and then purple-pink skies,
And it's cool,
Baby, with me.
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?
Me!
