Bloodshot Lyrics

You were the new girl dressed in a Henley

Ears with those spacers that kind of scared me

Hair in a bun and hands on a bass guitar

I was a singer leading the church band

Catching your brown eyes over the mic stand

That was the first time I learned who you are

But that's not why I've

Bloodshot eyes

You know I'm talking 'bout those

Sleepless nights

We said we'd try it once

We tried it twice

Have you forgotten

Bloodshot eyes

I don't sleep thinking

About those times

Your tangled hair, we laughed

Your hands in mine

Have you forgotten

Bloodshot

We had a meeting with some other church staff

You cracked a feminist joke and I laughed

Made them uncomfortable and I was mesmerized

We went for coffee, we went for dinner

Walked to the beach, watched a film and you lingered

They started to question how you owned my time

If they knew why I've

Bloodshot eyes

You know I'm talking 'bout those

Sleepless nights

We said we'd try it once

We tried it twice

Have you forgotten

Bloodshot eyes

I don't sleep thinking

About those times

Your tangled hair, we laughed

Your hands in mine

Have you forgotten

We don't talk about it

We keep it quiet

Don't start a riot

Oh, play it safe but

Do you remember

Ended it in September

You said forever

You left but you've got

Bloodshot eyes

You know I'm talking 'bout those

Sleepless nights

We said we'd try it once

We tried it twice

Have you forgotten

Oh, bloodshot eyes

I don't sleep thinking

About those times

Your tangled hair, we laughed

Your hands in mine

(Don't forget, no regrets, in your head, am I there still)

Have you forgotten

Bloodshot
