I went looking for someone I left behind Yeah, but no one just a stranger I did find I never noticed, hadn't seen it as it grew The void between us where the flame turns blue Different places, yeah, but they all look the same Dreams of faces in the streets devoured by names I'm in collision with every stone I ever threw And blind ambition where the flame turns blue Words dismantled, hey, and all the books unbound Conversations though we utter not a sound I heard a rumour, I don't know if it's true That you'd meet me where the flame turns blue So I venture underneath the leaden sky See the freight train with it's one fierce eye And then I listen as it tears the night in two With a whistle and the flame turns blue In the morning I will sing In the morning I will sing Through the lemon trees, the diamonds of light Break in splinters on the pages where I write That if I lost you I don't know what I'd do Burn forever where the flame turns blue That if I lost you I don't know what I'd do Burn forever where the flame turns blue In the morning I will sing In the morning I will sing In the morning I will sing In the morning I will sing

When the world turns blue some where after you I'll just have to handle it with all I know how to do, I'll write a song about you, how love can't live without you, How every place you touched me made me feel new And when we are gone, the song will live on Some stranger will hear and he'll say this is just how I feel, Every line, every moment is true, when the world turns blue. When the world turns blue, When the world turns blue, you will turn into Rhythm, words and melody that show a power anew And though the past may find you with all I left behind you I still will play the song that I played for you Woo hooooo
