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
[Chorus]
I've been runnin' 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
[Verse 2]
I'll help you pick a peach morning dress
A Tuesday in your Sunday best
Listenin' to your old cassettes
Wondering when the sun had set
And I'm tossin' and turnin'
(Tossin', turnin' around)
Searchin' for pieces outside myself
All the lines are blurrin'
All I can see are your pastels
[Chorus]
I've been running in a circle
In my mind's eye, looking for rain
I'm breakin' 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
(Tossin', turnin' around)
My mint green tangerine
(Tossin', turnin' around)
Yeah, you're my tangerine
(Tossin', turnin' around)
My mint green tangerine
(Tossin', turnin' around)
