Cranes in the Sky Lyrics
I tried to drink it away
I tried to put one in the air
I tried to dance it away
I tried to change it with my hair
I ran my credit card bill up
Thought a new dress make it better
I tried to work it away
But that just made me even sadder
I tried to keep myself busy
I ran around circles
Think I made myself dizzy
I slept it away, I sexed it away
I read it away, away
Away, away, away, away, away x2
Well it's like cranes in the sky
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-do do)
Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
Yeah it's like cranes in the sky
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-do do)
Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
I tried to run it away
Thought then my head be feeling clearer
I traveled 70 states
Thought moving round make me feel better
I tried to let go my lover
Thought if I was alone then maybe I could recover
To write it away or cry it away (don't you cry baby), away
Away, away, away, away, away x2
But it's like cranes in the sky
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-do do)
Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
Yeah it's like cranes in the sky
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-do do)
Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
Away, away, away, away, away, away
I tried to put one in the air
I tried to dance it away
I tried to change it with my hair
I ran my credit card bill up
Thought a new dress make it better
I tried to work it away
But that just made me even sadder
I tried to keep myself busy
I ran around circles
Think I made myself dizzy
I slept it away, I sexed it away
I read it away, away
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-do do)
Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
Yeah it's like cranes in the sky
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-do do)
Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
Thought then my head be feeling clearer
I traveled 70 states
Thought moving round make me feel better
I tried to let go my lover
Thought if I was alone then maybe I could recover
To write it away or cry it away (don't you cry baby), away
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-do do)
Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
Yeah it's like cranes in the sky
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-do do)
Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds

so so so like Beyonce's "Sandcastles", Selena's "Back to you"..... but I feel like this track is even more genuine.... "I slept it away, I sexed it away I read it away... I tried to dance it away I tried to change it with my hair" explains the things that ppl do to try and forget ppl and at times which dont work because the mind is an active inference engine which can never unknow a lover/ex... and which will always compare current lovers to past ones unwittingly..... Grass is not always greener on the other side..... each person is born with unique gifts... and at times we leave our own soulmates and as time goes by, we never find anyone better and we start yearning for them... sometimes we leave people because of their material possessions but you can never unkno or stop yearning for true love
