Lyrics to Chuck Taylors
(One, two, three, one)
We were holding hands barefoot in the grass
With the red sunset still warm on our backs
The sky looked like an ocean and the water looked like glass
And forever meant tomorrow, we both wondered if we would last
You were leaving town, I didn't want to fessy
Love just doesn't grow in two different places
Us burning out, I couldn't take it
So we tied a double knot and was faded by the laces
My size twеlve and your size sevеn
We flew 'em straight, straight up to heaven high
In our small town's sky
It was up in the air, are they gonna make it?
Never come down, never gonna come on down
Yeah, you and I were still hanging in there
Just like Chuck Taylor's on a power line
In between the silence you and me talked all night
I made you laugh and accidentally made you cry
When I said I wouldn't blame you if the sunrise meant goodbye
You said, "How dare you, baby, who wouldn't have to try?"
I'm sitting right there on the hoodie of satin
Bright as the red on your flower dress pattern
The light went off and that's when it happened
You were gonna be mine and nothin' else mattered
My size twelve and your size seven
We flew 'em straight, straight up to heaven high
In our small town's sky
It was up in the air, are they gonna make it?
Never come down, never gonna come on down
Yeah, you and I were still hanging in there
Just like Chuck Taylor's on a power line
(Ooh)
"Are they gonna make it?"
Yes, we're gonna make it
"Are they gonna make it?"
Mmm, yes, we're gonna make it
My size twelve and your size seven
We flew 'em straight, straight up to heaven high
In our small town's sky
It was up in the air, are they gonna make it?
Never come down, never gonna come on down
No, we're never gonna come on down
We're gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (Oh, yeah)
Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (Ooh)
Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (Yeah)
Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (Chuck Taylor's on a power line)
Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (Yes we are)
Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (Oh-oh)
Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now ([?])
Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (Yeah, you and I were still hanging in there)
Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now
Just like Chuck Taylor's on a power line
We were holding hands barefoot in the grass
With the red sunset still warm on our backs
The sky looked like an ocean and the water looked like glass
And forever meant tomorrow, we both wondered if we would last
You were leaving town, I didn't want to fessy
