bursting bright blue sky
you’re the reason why
foot is tapping time
teachers speak in rhyme
sitting here in school
grinning like a fool
I’m not gonna lie
you’re the reason why
almost three fifteen
life is so serene
I’ll be skipping home
to the telephone
checked the box by “yes”
made my heart fluoresce
clouds are gliding by
you’re the reason why
bursting through my door
backpack to the floor
gotta call my friends
when I’m sane again
school is almost done
summer’s gonna come
my world’s flung so wide
you’re the reason why
you turn my world on to light
make colors look bright
you’re the swing in my set
let’s lie down in the grass
that cloud’s a giraffe
feels like sun when you laugh
you’re the reason why
I don’t feel so shy
I feel twice as tall
walking down the hall
flipped a switch in me
when we went to see
your new favorite band
and you held my hand
all these brand new hues
how you’ve been my muse
you don’t have to try
you’re the reason why
you turn my world on to light
make colors look bright
you’re the swing in my set
let’s lie down in the grass
that cloud’s a giraffe
feels like sun when you laugh
as you lean on my shoulder
I know that this world’s for me
you turn my world on to light
make colors look bright
you’re the swing in my set
let’s lie down in the grass
that cloud’s a giraffe
feels like sun when you laugh
you turn my world on to light
you’re the swing in my set
let’s lie down in the grass
feels like sun when you laugh
