My Girl You Blush Lyrics
Come on out, don’t be another fool.
We’ll go anywhere…anywhere.
If half a heart has made your tongue a tool,
go everywhere that isn’t here.
If you’re naked on a blue screen,
we’ll change the scene you’re in.
If you’re blinded by a big beam
half drunk with reddened skin...
Then come on out, don’t be another fool.
We’ll go anywhere, just anywhere…
Half a heart from you will never do.
Let’s go everywhere that’s far from here.
Across town the sound of your jeans
seems miracles away.
I had dreams I was in your dreams
no matter where you’d stay.
Tender is the night, it now seems,
but not the waking day.
Despite no light I’ll find you,
I’ll always be your salutary leech.
And if the blindest kindness blinds you,
all hell breaks loose when my arms go besiege.
And every door will yield,
and every window sunder into cells…
Tonight you’re sleeping with someone else,
the only problem is that you’re not sleeping at all.
Please come on out, don’t be another fool.
We’ll go anywhere...
a billion endless worlds away from here.
If we’re happy on a barstool,
we’ll buy the bar we’re in.
If we’re kicked out every art school,
we’ll paint each other’s skin.
If your jokes prove you an arch fool,
I’ll love you with a grin...
And you'll blush,
you blush my girl
you blush.
We’ll go anywhere…anywhere.
If half a heart has made your tongue a tool,
go everywhere that isn’t here.
we’ll change the scene you’re in.
If you’re blinded by a big beam
half drunk with reddened skin...
We’ll go anywhere, just anywhere…
Half a heart from you will never do.
Let’s go everywhere that’s far from here.
seems miracles away.
I had dreams I was in your dreams
no matter where you’d stay.
Tender is the night, it now seems,
but not the waking day.
I’ll always be your salutary leech.
And if the blindest kindness blinds you,
all hell breaks loose when my arms go besiege.
and every window sunder into cells…
Tonight you’re sleeping with someone else,
the only problem is that you’re not sleeping at all.
We’ll go anywhere...
a billion endless worlds away from here.
we’ll buy the bar we’re in.
If we’re kicked out every art school,
we’ll paint each other’s skin.
If your jokes prove you an arch fool,
I’ll love you with a grin...
you blush my girl
you blush.

This song is so wonderful. It makes me think of something a guy would sing to a girl if her were serenading her from outside her bedroom window at night. The best lines ever in a song, "If we're happy on a barstool, we're buy the bar we're in, if we're kicked out of the artschool, we'll paint each other's skin". It's so beautiful, I wish someone would say that to me.
Yeah.. This song is wonderful. But I always think about how it is, loving your best friend. Not your girlfriend or boyfriend. I dont know why I think its about close friendship. Maybe because of it sounds like they will always be there, have fun and love each other no matter what would happen. Like only a best friend would do.
I have really gotten into this song the last couple of months - after being completely unaware of it's excistence for 13 years ...
To me it's a song about being in love with someone who sees you as a friend and nothing more. Usually that's a very sad and frustrating situation, but the narrator keeps his head high throughout the lyrics - and maybe it helps him in the end.
The narrator keeps on calling out to the subject of the song - a girl. He want's her to "come on out", meaning that they are not in the same place - physically and mentally. He's in love, she's not. She's not with him, he wants her to be.
A lot of the lines start with the word "if" signaling that the narrator doesn't know a lot about the girl, eventhough he's thinking a lot about her. He imagines what she might be doing, and what they can do together.
The narrator also keeps saying they can "go anywhere", but it's important to him, that they go somewhere "that isn't here/that's far from here/a billion endless worlds away from here". Things aren't working out the way he wants, where they are now, but if they could just go somewhere else ...
He's obviously crazy about her, but as of now, she's not noticing, as it shows in the lines: "Across town the sound of your jeans/seems miracles away/ I had dreams I was in your dreams/no matter where you’d stay"
And even though the narrator stays positive throughout the song he is well aware of the unsustainable situation: "Half a heart from you will never do."
He tells himself that see might not be noticing, that he's hitting on her, and decides to step it up. It's not a succes: "And if the blindest kindness blinds you, all hell breaks loose when my arms go besiege."
His fruitless struggle is captured in this key line in the lyrics: "Tonight you’re sleeping with someone else/the only problem is that you’re not sleeping at all". He is taking the positive approach, but underneight the smiling surface, he knows it's not going well.
But he keeps on calling for her with increasing desperation "Please come on out ..."
And after the final set of suggestions of what they can do together, it seems like he actually gets something back.
He starts out by hopefully saying "you'll blush" in future tense, hoping that his song will impress her, and then states in present tense "you blush my girl, you blush."
He has finally gotten through to her, telling her how he feels about her through the lyrics.
And now she's blushing. And we leave the story on a happy note. Even though the events in the lyrics forecasts that he will get a halfhearted respons. But who knows ...
