Kendal is a beauty from outer space
Radiating blue when she stood in place, oh yeah
She had a look I hadn’t seen before
An ultraviolet glow I could not ignore, oh no
And that was when her eyes, they locked with mine
She touched my face and told me “close your eyes”
Ooh, ooh, baby stay.
Don’t get on that plane
Kendal didn’t know she would meet me here
That sparks would fly at midnight; we’re in the clear, oh yeah
Kendal really had her a way with words
So when she said my name I’d never forget hers, oh no
Morning made it just the night before
I think I see her footprints by the door
I didn’t get the chance to say goodbye
I would’ve tried to ask for one more night
Radiating blue when she stood in place, oh yeah
She had a look I hadn’t seen before
An ultraviolet glow I could not ignore, oh no
And that was when her eyes, they locked with mine
She touched my face and told me “close your eyes”
Ooh, ooh, baby stay.
Don’t get on that plane
Kendal didn’t know she would meet me here
That sparks would fly at midnight; we’re in the clear, oh yeah
Kendal really had her a way with words
So when she said my name I’d never forget hers, oh no
Morning made it just the night before
I think I see her footprints by the door
I didn’t get the chance to say goodbye
I would’ve tried to ask for one more night
You get that call that you never want to hear
That heavy tone on the line
What do you say when there’s so much left unsaid?
And no one’s doing fine
We'd pick up right where we left off every time
Now the good old days are the only days on my mind
Days go by without you there, I see your friends but not you here
I can’t stand to look around anymore
Now Boulder’s lost its glimmer, it’s a never-ending shadow I can’t bear
Back to those warm nights and barbecues
It was just me and them and you
I missed you last week, but I’ll meet you home in June
I hold my breath I cannot breathe, a rushing wave of memories
I see you, do you see me? I see you
That heavy tone on the line
What do you say when there’s so much left unsaid?
And no one’s doing fine
We'd pick up right where we left off every time
Now the good old days are the only days on my mind
Days go by without you there, I see your friends but not you here
I can’t stand to look around anymore
Now Boulder’s lost its glimmer, it’s a never-ending shadow I can’t bear
Back to those warm nights and barbecues
It was just me and them and you
I missed you last week, but I’ll meet you home in June
I hold my breath I cannot breathe, a rushing wave of memories
I see you, do you see me? I see you
Empty houses, they’re all at the high school game tonight
Feeling so blown, claustrophobic, sitting in this town
I’m drowning in digital stars, but I want the real thing
I left all my cash in the car. The best things in life are free, babe
Claudia’s waiting inside, I’m out here with you, babe
You’re beautiful, it makes me cry
I don’t know what’s true, babe
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Radio static, the soundtrack, dancing in the streets
Shakedown, I break down, this ghost town, no one new to meet
I’m drowning in digital stars. I left all my cash in the car
You’re beautiful, it makes me cry
Dreaming of you tonight
Feeling so blown, claustrophobic, sitting in this town
I’m drowning in digital stars, but I want the real thing
I left all my cash in the car. The best things in life are free, babe
Claudia’s waiting inside, I’m out here with you, babe
You’re beautiful, it makes me cry
I don’t know what’s true, babe
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Radio static, the soundtrack, dancing in the streets
Shakedown, I break down, this ghost town, no one new to meet
I’m drowning in digital stars. I left all my cash in the car
You’re beautiful, it makes me cry
Dreaming of you tonight
