out of the blue - joelistics lyrics

[verse 1]
out of the blue, it all changed in an instant
he was nineteen when she told him she was pregnant
barely out of high school, living in a small town
neither of ’em had a job or money in the bank
he got work on the factory floor
struggling to make ends meet but she adored him
always in his corner when her parents started on her, like
“he won’t ever amount to that much”
the baby arrived, really, they tried
she said, “let’s do the best we can, a day at a time”
he started staying out all night, getting drunk
convinced he couldn’t deal with what he had and what he’d done
he lost his job and that was no surprise
she said, “i can’t go on watching you destroy your life
you need to get it together or i’m leaving with our kid”
he said, “it’s probably best if you left,” so she did

[chorus: kaity dunstan & joelistics]
so when you gonna learn?
it’ll hit you hard
even if it hurts
and it always does
so when you gonna learn?
let it in your heart
we come together and fall apart
out of the blue, my love

[verse 2: joelistics]
five years later and she’s living in the city
she’d severed all contact to her old life
her little girl’s at school, and she was working days
staying up late and studying through the night
out of the blue, he called up and they talked
he said he’d got a job up north on fishing trawlers
he hadn’t touched a drink, for two years, he’d been clean
plus he saved some money on the side in between
he cleared his throat, made an awkward joke
and asked, “maybe i could come and visit you both?
but only if you think it’s alright, i mean”
she said she’d think about it, the next day, she agreed

[chorus: kaity dunstan & joelistics]
it’ll hit you hard
even if it hurts
like it always does
so when you gonna learn?
let it in your heart
we come together and fall apart
out of the blue, my love
out of the blue
out of the blue
out of the blue, my love

[verse 3: joelistics]
he got on a plane and flew across the desert
watching as the world flew by
it felt like he held his breath from the airport
all the way to her front door the whole time
he knocked soft and she opened up
and they looked at each other, both dumbstruck
each waiting for the other one to speak first
but neither of ’em could find any words, then
out of the blue, as if on cue
trying to hold back the tears in their eyes
and with a voice full of cracks and a heart fit to burst
she said, “well, you took your time”

[bridge: kaity dunstan & joelistics]
these moments make up a lifetime
mistakes we make are not fixed in stone
people we love are a lifeline
and none of us can do it on our own
out of the blue
out of the blue
out of the blue, love saves us
out of the blue, we all learn that lesson

[chorus: kaity dunstan & joelistics]
so when you gonna learn?
it’ll hit you hard
even if it hurts
like it always does
so when you gonna learn?
let it in your heart
we come together and fall apart
out of the blue, my love
