Blue Bloods

All the east coast blue bloods had come out west
 
 And I watched them argue about who loved you the best
 I was conspicuously of my kind
 Overdressed but woefully under-refined
 With a story held together like boulders with a piece of twine
 ♪
 Three helicopters circling
 Retreating and returning
 Your photographs were on the news
 And I was there just out of view
 ♪
 I was standing with a smile chiseled into my head
 With a mind in retreat to the places I wished I would've been
 When you caught my gaze I turned away
 Planned an exit like a grand escape
 As I watched you spinning through the revelers like a cheap ballet
 ♪
 These words all sound familiar
 Convictions of forever
 You tied a wish to a balloon
 Watched it fly into the blue
 But you will find someday soon
 That it will fall
 Yes, it will fall
 They all do
 ♪
 Yes, they all do
 ♪
 Yes, they all do
 ♪
 They all do
 ♪
 Yes, they all do
