Different Shades of Blue

Sitting in the glare of the neon smoke
Always mistaken for the light of hope
Mourning in a lonely woman’s eyes
She’s fallen one more time
Feeling the weight of the morning sky
I’m running again from another lie
From gray to midnight I’ve been through
Every broken-hearted hue
You may think I’m lying, but I swear that it’s true
You think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you
I’ve seen it all, in different shades of blue
Faded photo of a house for sale
Cold dark pewter of a casket rail
There’s not too much these eyes ain’t seen
Between the yellow and the green
You may think I’m lying, but I swear that it’s true
You think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you
I’ve seen it all, in different shades of blue
Every time we fell in love, breaking down and making up
The azure of a new sunrise, the shadow of a moonlit night
Standing in the ocean laughing, watching as the waves come crashing
Seeing colors that we never even knew
You may think I’m lying, but I swear that it’s true
You think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you
I’ve seen it all, in different shades of blue
You may think I’m lying, but I swear that it’s true
You think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you
I’ve seen it all, in different shades of blue
I’ve seen it all, in different shades of blue
I’ve seen it all
