Crossed the sapphire sea alone
Headed for my London home
Dublin nights are taking their toll
Kissing strangers to try to feel whole

Ferrying down the Irish coast
Window seat, eyes half closed
I shook it off and I turned to see
A blue eyed boy across from me

His eyes were kind, so I turned to ask him
"What's the time?", and we soon lost track

And I, I finally found a cloudless sky
A butterfly
And I, I finally found a reason to romanticize
Being alive
My blue eyed boy

Manchester boy, through and through
Rolled up sleeves and a dragon tattoo
He worked construction with his dad
The only job he'd ever had

It takes a lot of self control
When a wild child meets an old soul
Blurrin' fields of gray and green
3AM, no thought of sleep

When fairytales, they started speaking
And here's the magic I've been seeking

And I, I finally found a cloudless sky
A butterfly
And I, I finally found a reason to romanticize
Being alive
My blue eyed boy
My blue eyed boy
My blue eyed boy
My blue eyed boy
My blue eyed boy
Ohhh, ohh, ohh, ohh
My blue eyed boy
Ohhh, ohh, ohh, ohh

A romance novel in one night
Gone in a flash, but he left a light
We're just a story, nothing more
But isn't that what life is for
