BLUE

I try to live in black and white, but I'm so blue

I'd like to mean it when I say I'm over you

But that's still not true (blue)

And I'm still so blue, oh

I thought we were the same (I thought we were the same)

Birds of a feather (birds of a feather), now I'm ashamed

I told you a lie, désolé, mon amour

I'm trying my best, don't know what's in store

Open up the door (blue)

In the back of my mind, I'm still overseas

A bird in a cage, thought you were made for me

I try (I'm not what) to live in black and white, but I'm so blue (but I'm not what you need)

I'd like (not what you need) to mean it when I say I'm over you

But that's still not true, true

And I'm still so blue (and it's not true)

True blue, true blue

I'm true blue (ooh-ooh) hmm, hmm-mm

You were born bluer than a butterfly

Beautiful and so deprived of oxygen

Colder than your father's eyes

He never learned to sympathize with anyone

I don't blame you

But I can't change you

Don't hate you

But we can't save you (but we can't save you)

You were born reaching for your mother's hands

Victim of your father's plans to rule the world

Too afraid to step outside

Paranoid and petrified of what you've heard

But they could say the same 'bout me

I sleep 'bout three hours each night

Means only 21 a week now, now

And I could say the same 'bout you

Born blameless, grew up famous too

Just a baby born blue now, now

I don't blame you

But I can't change you

Don't hate you

But we can't save you

But when can I hear the next one?
