Molasses Skies Lyrics

I’ve been watching seagulls fly

Wasting time waiting for your call

I thought I’d be on your mind maybe just a little bit more

Walls of green mountain side you sat there looking in my eyes

I thought you liked the soul that you saw deep down inside

Oh molasses skies

You got me wondering why

Why I’m so terrible in love

Why I keep stumping in love
Oh molasses skies

You got me wondering why

Why I’m so terrible in love

Why I keep stumping in love

I was under your spell 

You’re a good fisherman

You hooked me good and now I’m drying out on the sand with them all

I should be quick to swim away when I first seem the fin

Cause I’ve been bitten before

I felt every teeth sink in

Oh molasses skies

You got me wondering why

Why I’m so terrible in love

Why I keep stumping in love
Oh molasses skies

You got me wondering why

Why I’m so terrible in love

Why I keep stumping in love
