Phoenixes Lyrics - Second Love - Emmy The Great

The Phoenixes headed west 

cross country Nebraska, Nevada 

The phoenix has to leave its nest but 

Change is good for some 

It is not good for others 

First there were five, then there four 

Leaf, he changed his colours, that's for sure 

River was your favourite 

His eyes were aqua 

He's in our history now 

Like Cleopatra 

And you... 

My screen grab beauty queen 

Typing something out in green

Like we were seventeen x4 

When we first met we read Bliss 

Soon we were too old for this 

We though that weight loss was survival 

We thought that Vogue was French for Bible 

Up on the wall 

We put them all 

Leaf, he changed his colours, that's for sure 

River was your favourite 

His eyes were aqua 

He's in our history now 

Like Cleopatra 

And you... 

My screen grab beauty queen 

Typing something on the screen 

Like we were seventeen x4 

River, Rain, Summer, Leaf and Liberty x4

And you 

My screen grab beauty queen 

Are you working out your next life dream? 

Like we were seventeen x8
