| The carnival left town,
|
| The tents all came down yesterday.
|
| Though the clowns had their way,
|
| It’s only clouds in your eyes I can see.
|
| Though I can’t stop the rain
|
| Nor the sweet and aching pain in your heart,
|
| There ain’t no sugar sweet as you
|
| When you soul is painted blue, baby —
|
| falling apart —
|
| You’re reaching for something to save you
|
| Feeling…
|
| Blue like the deep sea
|
| Colors your country
|
| When we’re driving home
|
| Blue like a moonbeam
|
| Drowning you baby
|
| When you feel alone
|
| So, I can’t stop the rain
|
| Nor the sweet and aching pain in your heart
|
| It’s just the way that we fall
|
| When we’re standing one and all in the dark
|
| And in the pieces we fall
|
| I see the people one and all
|
| Reach for the sky
|
| And there’s something there to remind us
|
| But nobody knows why
|
| Blue like the deep sea
|
| Colors your country
|
| When we’re driving home
|
| Blue like a moonbeam
|
| Drowning you baby
|
| When you feel alone
|
| These are the things that you see
|
| When you’re looking back at me through the pain
|
| But we don’t have to fall
|
| If we stand together tall in the rain
|
| And in this world painted blue
|
| I can only promise you
|
| Holding your heart
|
| Singing these songs
|
| About a new start
|
| When I’ll bathe you in sunbeams,
|
| Tattoo your daydreams
|
| Across our sky.
|
| I’ll love you like Sunday,
|
| No clouds on the highway
|
| When we’re driving home.
|
| Blue like the deep sea
|
| Colors your country
|
| When we’re driving home
|
| Blue like a moonbeam
|
| Drowning you baby
|
| When you feel alone
|
| Blue, blue
|
| Blue, blue
|
| Blue like the deep sea
|
| Colors you baby
|
| Blue like a moonbeam
|
| Drowning you baby |
