Cover art for Blue Skies lyrics by Noah and the Whale

I had a painful break up a year ago and this song was basically all i played after it. Shortly after i got a chance to see them live. I'm a guy and i NEVER normally cry but when they played this song i cried hard.

I think it's just the sense that you have to face reality and let go of whatever you had that makes this song so great.
