You know who's a good-looking man? Jude Law. You'd be proud and lucky to mature like him—the way he continues to lose hair but just makes it work. He's sexy, he's distinguished, he's funny, he's charming. You know who would have a beautiful record like this in his collection? Yep: Jude. Law. It's just like him! Handsome, tasteful, smart, mature, but edgy when it should be. You like Jude Law. You like Jack Hotel. You get what I'm saying here. Jude Law. Jack Hotel. Jude Law. Jack Hotel. I think we are on the same page.

lyrics
Powder blue, paint the baby's room
And line the empty bottles on the floor
Emerald green, a touch of tangerine
We don't even live here anymore
Tape the trim, keep the bad thoughts in
Tell me, is there something on your mind?
You only see what you choose to see
I thought I told you everything was fine
Listen close, I thought I heard a ghost
The voice resounds across the house
The message is not clear
Keep my hand wrapped around your hand
The other one is cupped around my ear
Oh, my soul, where does good love go
And why don't I believe it when it comes
And oh, my sin, where do I begin
In the valley that is cleft between my tongue
Listen close, I thought I heard a ghost
The voice resounds across the house
The message is not clear
Keep my hand wrapped around your hand
The other one is cupped around my ear
Paint the walls and doors around you
Pace the halls and floors without you
Someone calls to ask about you
I don't know what to say
Buy an old canoe and paint it powder blue
And set it drifting slow across the sound
In the breeze, the helicopter seeds
Free themselves and flutter to the ground
And line the empty bottles on the floor
Emerald green, a touch of tangerine
We don't even live here anymore
Tape the trim, keep the bad thoughts in
Tell me, is there something on your mind?
You only see what you choose to see
I thought I told you everything was fine
Listen close, I thought I heard a ghost
The voice resounds across the house
The message is not clear
Keep my hand wrapped around your hand
The other one is cupped around my ear
Oh, my soul, where does good love go
And why don't I believe it when it comes
And oh, my sin, where do I begin
In the valley that is cleft between my tongue
Listen close, I thought I heard a ghost
The voice resounds across the house
The message is not clear
Keep my hand wrapped around your hand
The other one is cupped around my ear
Paint the walls and doors around you
Pace the halls and floors without you
Someone calls to ask about you
I don't know what to say
Buy an old canoe and paint it powder blue
And set it drifting slow across the sound
In the breeze, the helicopter seeds
Free themselves and flutter to the ground
