Empty Skies - Lucy Gidley

Those timid eyes

For those who were twice your size

But what I knew

Was the girl that did nothing but smile

Dressed up for just us to see

Tip-toed and twirled with ease

But what I knew

In three summers it'd be what we used to do

Sun sets but nothing ever showed in it's place

Empty skies still lingered she had nothing to chase

You know what they say

So know that I'll shine no matter the time

I hope that it reaches you I promise you'll be fine

Always around even if they cannot be found

You're walking down in hand me down shoes

I'm sorry if you can feel the ground from under you

I wore them too

Always around even if they cannot be found

Those teary eyes

The ones that you'd keep inside

But I know

You're gonna say that you're fine

Past midday you're late to rise

You say you're only tired

But I know

That you've practiced your lines

Sun sets but nothing ever showed in it's place

Empty skies still lingered she had nothing to chase

You know what they say

So know that I'll shine no matter the time

I hope that it reaches you I promise you'll be fine

Always around even if they cannot be found

You're walking down in hand me down shoes

I'm sorry if you can feel the ground from under you

I wore them too

Always around even if they cannot be found

Always around even if they cannot be found
