Tegan and Sara – Yellow Lyrics

Yellow Lyrics by Tegan and Sara

[Intro]
I’m so vain, I can’t look away
I’m so vain, I can’t look away
We hit play, feels like yesterday
That we hit play, now that’s all gone away

[Verse 1]
Lemme lemme see what we got
Tell me, tell me where do we stop
Everything is falling apart
Same shit that kept us apart

[Chorus]
I’ve been gone too long
This bruise ain’t black, it’s yellow (I’ve been gone too long)
My sweet heart breaks, so be careful
But this pain ain’t red, now it’s a yellow
My sweet heart sings out like a devil
This bruise ain’t black, it’s yellow (I’ve been gone too long)
I’ve been gone too long

[Verse 2]
Hating all our friends, hiding from their calls
We went wild, just taking off our clothes
Licking all our wounds, singing the same song
Tried in vain, but we can’t look away (I’ve been gone too long)

[Chorus]
This bruise ain’t black, it’s yellow (I’ve been gone too long)
My sweet heart breaks, so be careful
But this pain ain’t red, now it’s a yellow
My sweet heart sings out like a devil
This bruise ain’t black, it’s yellow (I’ve been gone too long)

[Bridge]
You were starting a fight to feel symmetry
I was stepping out to feel chemistry
Would it help you to know how sorry I was?
You were starting a war acting jealously
I was stepping out acting selfishly
Would it help you to know how sorry I was?

[Chorus]
I’ve been gone too long
This bruise ain’t black, it’s yellow (You were starting a war)
My sweet heart breaks, so be careful (I’ve been gone too long)
This bruise ain’t black, it’s yellow (You were starting a war)
My sweet heart breaks, so be careful (I’ve been gone too long)
