Pink Skies Lyrics – Zach Bryan
Pink Skies Song Lyrics
[Intro: Zach Bryan]
The kids are in town for a funeral
So pack the car and dry your eyes
I know they got plenty of young blood left in 'em
And plenty nights under pink skies you taught 'em to enjoy
[Verse 1: Zach Bryan]
So clean the house, clear the drawers, mop the floors, stand tall
Like no one's ever been here before or at all
And don't you mention all the inches that are scraped on the doorframe
We all know you tiptoed up to 4'1" back in '08
[Chorus: Zach Bryan]
If you could see 'em now, you'd be proud
But you'd think they's yuppiеs
Your funeral was beautiful
I bet God hеard you comin'
[Verse 2: Zach Bryan]
The kids are in town for a funeral
And the grass all smells the same as the day you broke your arm swingin'
On that kid out on the river
You bailed him out, never said a thing about Jesus or the way he's livin'
[Chorus: Zach Bryan]
If you could see 'em now, you'd be proud
But you'd think they's yuppies
Your funeral was beautiful
I bet God heard you comin'
If you could see 'em now, you'd be proud
But you'd think they's yuppies
Your funeral was beautiful
I bet God heard you comin'
[Outro: Zach Bryan]
The kids are in town for a funeral
So pack the car and dry your eyes
I know they got plenty of young blood left in 'em
And plenty nights under pink skies you taught 'em to enjoy

[Intro]
The introduction sets the scene with the family gathering for a funeral. The line about packing the car and drying eyes emphasizes the sorrow and the preparations involved. Bryan acknowledges that despite the grief, the children have vibrant lives ahead, filled with youthful energy and many beautiful moments under "pink skies" that they were taught to appreciate.
[Verse 1]
In this verse, there's a focus on preparing the home for visitors, making it pristine as if no one had ever lived there. This meticulous cleaning symbolizes trying to maintain a sense of normalcy and respect for the deceased. The mention of the doorframe with scratches marks the growth of a child, recalling a specific memory from 2008 when someone reached 4'1" while tiptoeing. This detail adds a personal touch, highlighting the significance of seemingly small moments in the family's history.
[Chorus]
The chorus reflects on how the deceased would feel about the children now. Bryan suggests they would be proud but might also find them unfamiliar, calling them "yuppies," a term that hints at a more affluent, perhaps disconnected lifestyle. The funeral is described as beautiful, indicating a well-organized and heartfelt farewell. The line "I bet God heard you comin'" suggests the deceased had a strong presence that even God would notice.
[Verse 2]
This verse recalls a specific memory of the deceased, mentioning the familiar smell of the grass and a past incident where they broke their arm.
