Blue

(Verse 1) You walked in like a summer sky Soft enough to change my mind You said my name, I smiled too fast Never thought the feeling’d last Every little look you gave Turned my heart into a wave I knew better, I still stayed Watching all my colors fade (Pre-Chorus) Everybody warned me, “Don’t” But my heart just whispered, “Go” I was running toward the fire Calling all the smoke desire (Chorus) I’m blue, blue because of you Fell for somebody I never should’ve loved Painted all my dreams in your favorite hue Now they’re washed away like rain always does You were sunshine to my eyes But thunder in disguise I held onto something I could never keep Now all that’s left is blue… Blue because of you (Verse 2) You were never really mine Just a beautiful goodbye Every promise, every kiss Was a page I shouldn’t miss I kept hoping you’d come through Even when I knew the truth Love can make a heart believe Things it shouldn’t ever see (Pre-Chorus) I kept calling it fate When it was just my own mistake Trying to turn the wrong into right By loving you every night (Chorus) I’m blue, blue because of you Fell for somebody I never should’ve loved Painted all my dreams in your favorite hue Now they’re washed away like rain always does You were sunshine to my eyes But thunder in disguise I held onto something I could never keep Now all that’s left is blue… Blue because of you (Bridge) Maybe someday I’ll thank the pain For teaching me that love can change Not every spark was meant to stay Some just light the way I’ll find a heart that feels like home Instead of making one from hope ‘Til then I’ll wear these shades of blue As proof I made it through (Final Chorus) I’m blue, but not because of you I’m healing every little piece you broke in two The sky is still the same old hue But I finally see it shining through You were never meant to stay Just a lesson on the way I’ll find the love that’s honest, warm, and true No longer living blue… I’m finally not blue.
