Verse 1:
Some...
Sometimes I get so sad.
Sometimes I feel 
Almost heavenly but...
Baby, 
I mostly feel bad.
Yeah, baby, 
I just feel bad.

Chorus:
Linger on, 
Your pale blue eyes
Linger on, 
Your pale blue eyes

Verse 2:
It was good 
What we did yesterday.
And I'd do it again.
The fact that you're insane,
Only proves that 
You're my best friend.
Well, I will never fuck 
Anyone else again.

Chorus:
Linger on, 
Your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, 
Your pale blue eyes.

Verse 3:
Thought of you as 
My mountain top.
I thought of you as 
My peak.
Thought of you as everything 
That I couldn't keep.
Yeah, that I had 
But I couldn't keep.

Chorus:
Linger on, 
Your pale blue eyes
Linger on, 
Your pale blue eyes

Verse 4:
You explode 
Inside of me,
Yeah you explode 
My heart.
I never had nothing anywhere 
So the end is where I start.
Cause I'm real 
From the start.

Chorus:
Linger on, 
Your pale blue eyes
Linger on, 
Your pale blue eyes
