CHUCK TAYLORS

(A-one, two, three, uh)

We were holding hands barefoot in the grass

With the red sunset still warm on our backs

The sky looked like an ocean and the water looked like glass

And forever meant tomorrow, we both wondered if we would last

You were leaving town, I didn't wanna face it

Love just doesn't grow in two different places

Us burning out, I couldn't take it

So we tied a double knot and was faded by the laces

My size 12 and your size seven

We flew 'em straight, straight up to heaven high

In our small town's sky

It was up in the air, are they gonna make it?

Never come down, never gonna come on down

Yeah, you and I were still hanging in there

Just like Chuck Taylor's on a power line

In between the silence you and me talked all night

I made you laugh and accidentally made you cry

When I said I wouldn't blame you if the sunrise meant goodbye

You said, "How dare you, baby, who wouldn't have to try?"

I'm sitting right there on the hoodie of satin

Bright as the red on your flower dress pattern

The light went off and that's when it happened

You were gonna be mine and nothin' else mattered

My size 12 and your size seven

We flew 'em straight, straight up to heaven high

In our small town's sky

It was up in the air, are they gonna make it?

Never come down, never gonna come on down

Yeah, you and I were still hanging in there

Just like Chuck Taylor's on a power line

(Oh)

"Are they gonna make it?"

Yes, we're gonna make it

"Are they gonna make it?"

Mmm, yes, we're gonna make it

My size 12 and your size seven

We flew 'em straight, straight up to heaven high

In our small town's sky

It was up in the air, are they gonna make it?

Never come down, never gonna come on down

No, we're never gonna come on down

We're gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (oh, yeah)

Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (ooh)

Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (yeah)

Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (chuck Taylor's on a power line)

Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (yes we are)

Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (oh-oh)

Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (just let it up)

Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (make it up baby)

Gonna make it, yes, we're gonna make it now (we're still hanging in there)

Just like Chuck Taylor's on a power line
