Uh-oh, my story's not

The oldest of its kind

But the sweet smoke came with mirrors

And it brought tears to my wide eyes

[Verse]

Uh-oh I saw you

Every time I closed my eyes,

In the Hughes film I had scored,

Produced and starred in, in my mind.

I could recite you,

Well, I'd written every line

But you strayed far from my flawless script

On which I'd spent a lifetime

Dying since I had misread

[Chorus]

Your blue heart, black eyes

Ab Cm Bb

Fading, falling, words I won't forget
