Dorian Blue

[Intro]
[Verse]
The clock strikes two
The rain is blue
Against the pane
A soft refrain
The ice melts slow
In the amber glow
The bass hums deep (yeah)
While the city sleeps
[Verse]
I see your face
In this crowded space
A ghost in silk
White as milk
He holds your coat
A lump in my throat
You turn to go
In the shadow's flow
[Pre-Chorus]
I remember the gin
And the state we were in
When the promises felt
Like they never would melt
[Chorus]
Oh, that smoky light
In the dead of night
We were gold and gin
Now the walls cave in
Just a bitter sip
On a lonely lip
Watching you depart
With a heavy heart
[Post-Chorus]
Just a heavy heart
Falling all apart
In the Dorian blue
Thinking 'bout you
[Interlude]
[Verse]
The trumpet moans
In minor tones
I'm staying here
With a ghost of fear
The door clicks shut
A clean, cold cut
The rain won't stop
Till the final drop
[Bridge]
You promised the moon
But you left too soon
In the back-alley mist
Where we first kissed
Now the Rhodes plays on
Till the break of dawn
Just a ghost of us
In the city dust
[Chorus]
Oh, that smoky light
In the dead of night
We were gold and gin
Now the walls cave in
Just a bitter sip
On a lonely lip
Watching you depart
With a heavy heart
[Hook]
It’s a long way down
In this neon town
It’s a long way home
When you’re all alone
[Verse]
I’ll order one more
By the kitchen door
Let the brushes slide
With nowhere to hide
The glass is thin
Like the mood I’m in
Just a shadow play
At the end of day
[Chorus]
Oh, that smoky light
In the dead of night
We were gold and gin
Now the walls cave in
Just a bitter sip
On a lonely lip
Watching you depart
With a heavy heart
[Outro]
