Exact Shade of Blue

(hummmm) Scanned the crowded coffee shop,

dynamic in the noise Searching for a single spark amidst the static

noise

Every face a faded ghost,

a story left untold Walking through a silver city feeling out of

cold

Then the door swung open wide,

the sunlight caught the frame Before I even heard her voice,

I knew I’d know her name

Now the search is over,

the compass found its north All the wrong turns that I took

were leading back and forth To this exact moment,

this exact shade of blue Spent a lifetime looking,

now I’m looking right at you Yeah,

the road was long and winding,

but the vision finally cleared I was searching for a missing piece,

and now she’s standing here

She’s a sudden plot twist in a book I thought I read

Laughter like a melody stuck inside my head No map,

no instructions, no warnings on the sign

Just two random orbits crossing over into line Every single background detail

slowly fades to grey

She just stepped into the shot and swept the rest away

No more guessing games or wishing on a midnight star

Turns out finding her was learning who we really are

It isn't magic tricks or secrets hidden under lock Just the quiet

realization when the hands stop on the clock

Now the search is over,

the compass found its north

All the wrong turns that I took were leading back and forth

To this exact moment,

this exact shade of blue

Spent a lifetime looking,

now I’m looking right at you Yeah,

the road was long and winding,

but the vision finally cleared I was searching for a missing piece,

and now she’s standing here

Yeah, she's standing here No more searching

(Finally found her)
