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, blue) Oh, I'm still so blue (Oh) (Blue, blue)
I thought we were the same (Thought we were the same) Birds of a feather (Birds of a feather) Now I'm ashamed (Oh), and I told you why Désolé, mon amour, I'm trying my best (Trying) Don't know what's in store, open up the door (Blue) In the back of my mind, I'm still overseas (Blue) A bird in a cage Thought you were made for me
I try (I'm not what) To livе in black and white But I'm so blue (But I'm not what you need) I'd like (Not what you need) To mеan it when I say I'm over you But that's still not true, true
(Blue, blue) And I'm still so blue (That's not true) (Blue, blue) I'm true blue, true blue I'm true blue
(Blue, blue) Mm, mm, mm
[Part II]
Ah-ah Ah-ah Ah-ah Ah-ah
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 (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 twenty-one a week now, now And I could say the same 'bout you Born prayin', that's cool, you're famous too Just a baby born blue now, now
I don't blame you (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)
(But they could say the same 'bout me) (I sleep 'bout three hours each night) (Means only twenty-one a week now) Ah-ah-ah (But they could say the same 'bout me) (I sleep 'bout three hours each night) (Means only twenty-one a week now) Ah-ah-ah-ah (But they could say the same 'bout me) (I sleep 'bout three hours each night) (Means only twenty-one a week now) Ah-ah (But they could say the same 'bout me) (I sleep 'bout three hours each night) (Means only twenty-one a week now) Ooh-ooh It's over now It's over now It's over now Ah-ah
