Julie skips the light
Saves her cigarette
For later tonight
She grabs the hand of
Johnny's hip
She loves the way that they fit

They walk below the stars
Talk of dreams and traveling far
Steady in these streets of rage
They wander endlessly

In this blue sky night
The streets are lit
And their hearts beat tight
They're wandering through
The blue sky night

So they sit in a garden's grass
Talk of their love
And how it will last
Johnny says "Love's forever only 'cause it will die"
Julie says "Yeah but then we can dance in the blue sky"
The blue sky

Johnny feels his head swell
He writes another page
Of the silent yell
Julie feels him drifting away
N' she kisses him hard and brings him back to stay

In this blue sky night
The streets are lit
And their hearts beat tight
Wandering through
The blue sky
Wandering through
The blue sky
Wondering through
The blue sky night
