Different Shades of Blue - Joe Bonamassa

You're the light, you're the night You're the color of my blood You're the cure, you're the pain You're the only thing I wanna touch Never knew that it could mean so much, so much You're the fear, I don't care 'Cause I've never been so high Follow me to the dark Let me take you past our satellites You can see the world you brought to life, to life So love me like you do, lo-lo-love me like you do Love me like you do, lo-lo-love me like you do Touch me like you do, to-to-touch me like you do What are you waiting for?

The tipping of scales and the balance of time Precede it The ticking of clocks in silent homes Admit it Larks ascending Clash with planes Oh, my soul, what will I do to feed them? Nothing inside, nothing outside Nothing in the kitchen What I'm left with, I don't know Spend all your life Just to find out All that matters Is close to you The people you know The things that you're shown Shape our views The places you've been To follow a dream In shades of blue And in a small side street of contemplation He lost it And in the late night bars of annihilation He lost it The truth is that "it" Wasn't his to lose Spend all your life Just to find out All that matters Is close to you The people you know The things that you're shown Shape our views The places you've been To follow a dream In shades of blue The people you know The things that you're shown Shape our views The places you've been To follow a dream In shades of blue Spend all your life

Why does it seem like Every time I try Life just goes upside down Baby I feel so broken inside Trying not to run out of time I don't know if I can face the light Cause I ain't been living right All these shades of blue Clouding what I see in you I know that you want the truth I think that I'm better alone All these shades of blue They get so damn hard to choose Between what's real and not the truth I think that I'm better alone My own worst enemy Cannot be stopped Too hard for me to change So what you said you loved me But look at me out here frozen Stuck in the cold and i'm faded It's hurting so much And no ones coming to save the day And it's all my fault Baby I feel so broken inside Trying not to run out of time I don't know if I can face the light Cause I ain't been living right All these shades of blue Clouding what I see in you I know that you want the truth I think that I'm better alone All these shades of blue They get so damn hard to choose Between what's real and not the truth I think that I'm better alone

Pack your bags and your radio You don't live here anymore Take your time as you walk out that door I don't cry us any long It don't matter what you wear It's all over now crying Two shades of blue tangled up in you Don't be sad if I said wrong thing I don't let yours anymore Take a walk on the wild side now Love don't live here anymore I don't worry about those things When all is said and done Two shades of blue tangled up in you Slow down honey by that door Wait for no one anymore Crying tender with your arms spread wide Or don't cry [Incomprehensible] I don't worry what dress you wear It's all over now, my dear Two shades of blue tangled up in you

She won't drive a Cadillac unless it's new She says gold is just a place to put my jewel I work double shifts for one more pair of shoes This livin' easy's getting hard to do My daddy said never spend more than you make And that advice I've always tried to take 'Til the day you walked into the room Now livin' easy's getting hard to do Keep it simple Man I'm trying Start out lovin' End up cryin' Loan me a dollar Some common sense Can't pay these credit cards on good looks and regrets Put a million in the bank but you need two Cause a man's gotta do what he's gotta do I'm going back to bustin' ass and singing blues This livin easy's getting hard to do Keep it simple Man I'm tryin' Start out lovin' End up cryin' Loan me a dollar Some common sense Can't pay these credit cards on good looks and regrets Put a tombstone in the back yard one day Hand carved under my name it will say Here lies a man who found out far too soon This livin' easy's gotten way too hard to do 'Til the day that you walked into the room This livin easy's getting hard to do
