Tangerine - Tim Atlas

Lyrics by：Timothy Ferguson

Composed by：Timothy Ferguson

Muted as a mustard yellow

You don't say much

I wish I had the nerve to say hello

I swear I'll stay in touch

On a dog day afternoon

Everyone else is in the pool

All these people underestimate the water color blue

I've been running in a circle

In my minds eye looking for rain

I'm breaking a sweat

Oh I'm a mess

And I don't know if I can see

Through all of the clouds

Help me figure it out

Oh what does it mean

You're my tangerine

My mint green tangerine

I'll help you pick a peach morning dress

A Tuesday in your Sunday best

Listening to your old cassettes

Wondering when the sun had set

And I'm tossing and turning

Tossing turning

Searching for pieces outside myself

All the lines are blurring

All I can see are your pastels

I've been running in a circle

In my mind's eye looking for rain

I'm breaking a sweat

Oh I'm a mess

And I don't know if I can see

Through all of the clouds

Help me figure it out

Oh what does it mean

You're my tangerine

Tossing turning around

My mint green tangerine

Tossing turning around

Yeah you're my tangerine

Tossing turning around

My mint green tangerine

Tossing turning around
