Lacey

Intro

hey, hey, hey — ah

(la-la, la-la)

Verse

She walks in with a tangle of ginger curls, all kinds of trouble

A little wild, a little slick where the sunlight likes to double

Skin like winter dust, a flake or two on her shoulder

She laughs at the mirror like it's getting bolder

She's heavy with stories, heavy with jokes, heavy with love

Wears her comfort like a blanket and the world can shove

But she moves like a room that fills up slow and wide

Pulls you closer with a crooked grin and a sleepy, sideways pride

Pre-chorus

And I don't mind, no I don't mind (no I don't)

I don't mind the edges, I like the lines (I like the lines)

She comes as she is, she stays the same (uh-huh)

Call her what you want, I call her name

Chorus

Lacey, Lacey, la-la, Lacey (Lacey)

Lacey, Lacey, oh-oh, Lacey (Lacey)

Ginger crown all messed up, yeah it's shining in the rain

Greasy little halo, makes the sun feel tame

Flaky like a postcard from a winter town (from a winter town)

She's big and she's loud and she won't turn down (won't turn down)

Lacey, Lacey, la-la, Lacey (Lacey)

Lacey, Lacey, oh-oh, Lacey (Lacey)

Verse

She eats fries at midnight, leaves the sauce on her chin

Sings off-key to the radio, shoes by the door, she wins

Scar on her knee, story in her laugh, freckles on parade

She takes the long way home and never makes a plan she made

People point like they got arrows in their hands

But she spins away and builds a house of sands

She fills the silence with a thousand tiny jokes

She folds the world around her like soft, clumsy notes

Bridge

When the lights go low she lets her guard drop slow

I hold a coat around her shoulders while the city moves below

All the messy bits and the beautiful mistakes (yeah)

I'm learning how to love the way she wakes

(la-la-la, la-la) — yeah

Chorus

Lacey, Lacey, la-la, Lacey (Lacey)

Lacey, Lacey, oh-oh, Lacey (Lacey)

Ginger crown all messed up, yeah it's shining in the rain

Greasy little halo, makes the sun feel tame

Flaky like a postcard from a winter town (from a winter town)

She's big and she's loud and she won't turn down (won't turn down)

Lacey, Lacey, la-la, Lacey (Lacey)

Lacey, Lacey, oh-oh, Lacey (Lacey)
