Coin Flip Sky

A restless track about chance, a coin in the shoe and a name on a napkin – letting fate decide.

Lyrics

I woke up with a coin in my shoe

Turned it over, wondering what to do

Your name was scribbled on a napkin fold

Next to a fork and a plastic bowl

The bus hissed by the corner store

You said, "Go left," then you said, "Go more"

I laughed too hard at a broken sign

Some days just choose you every time

So throw me a sign

Make it small, make it mine

I don’t need a map

I just need a crack

Coin flip sky

Take me high

Coin flip sky

Roll with me tonight

(coin flip sky)

One little turn

And we learn

Coin flip sky

Don't let go of me tonight

At the laundromat, your blue coat spun

Old socks hanging like a setting sun

A kid blew bubbles through a paper straw

I thought, maybe that’s the whole of it all

You bit a peach with your hands all sticky

Said, "Life gets weird when it gets too easy"

I kept that line like a lucky stone

Held it tight on the walk back home

So throw me a sign

Make it small, make it mine

I don't need a map

I just need a crack

Coin flip sky

Take me high

Coin flip sky

Roll with me tonight

(coin flip sky)

One little turn

And we learn

Coin flip sky

Don't let go of me tonight

Maybe the answer’s in the mess

In the half-smile, in the half-guess

If the world’s a joke, then I'm in line

Laughing through the toss this time

Coin flip sky

Take me high

Coin flip sky

Roll with me tonight

(coin flip sky)

One little turn

And we learn

Coin flip sky

Don’t let go of me tonight

(coin flip sky)

Don't let go of me tonight
