Erika Luckett - Van Gogh Sky Lyrics

There’s a Van Gogh Sky and everything seems to be swirling
And I’m not sure if my tea is reflecting the sun or the moon.
We said that we’d meet the third Sunday in June at our favorite cafe
In the late afternoon.

As I wait for you, I try to think of how we said goodbye
when you tried not to cry and I tried to be strong,
But my heart was already gone.
It was caught in the net of a short lived affair that promised so much
But didn’t go anywhere.

We said we’d be friends and we made plans to meet,
And oh...your memory is sweet -
Sweet in the way that takes you by surprise
Traveling your tongue gently disguised and just before it’s gone
You taste what’s most sublime.

There’s a Van Gogh sky and everything seems to be swirling
Do I love you or is it just memories that entertain me late at night
When the hum from the heater is all that I hear,
When I look at your picture, the one I keep near,
The one on the table right next to my bed...
Well, that’s what we said, didn’t we?
Third Sunday in June

There’s a Van Gogh sky and everything seems to be swirling
Now the sky’s gone dark and my tea cup just swallowed the moon.
