Mm, mm, mm
I try to live in black and white, but I’m so blueI’d like to mean it when I say I’m over youBut 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 ashamedI told you a lie, désolé, mon amourI’m trying my best, don’t know what’s in storeOpen up the door (blue)In the back of my mind, I’m still overseasA 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 youBut that’s still not true, trueAnd I’m still so blue (and it’s not true)I’m true blue, true blueI’m true blue
mm, mm, mm
Ah-ahAh-ah-ah-ahAh-ah
You were born bluer than a butterflyBeautiful and so deprived of oxygenColder than your father’s eyesHe never learned to sympathize with anyone
I don’t blame youBut I can’t change youDon’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 handsVictim of your father’s plans to rule the worldToo afraid to step outsideParanoid and petrified of what you’ve heard
But they could say the same ’bout meI sleep ’bout three hours each nightMeans only 21 a week now, nowAnd I could say the same ’bout youBorn blameless, grew up famous tooJust a baby born blue now, now
I don’t blame you (I don’t blame you)But I can’t change youDon’t hate youBut we can’t save you (we can’t save you)
Ooh-oohIt’s over nowIt’s over nowIt’s over now(Ah-ah-ah, ah)
But when can I hear the next one?
