The carnival left town
The tents all came down yesterday
Though the clowns had their way
It’s only clouds in your eyes I can see
Though I can’t stop the rain
Nor the sweet and aching pain in your heart
There ain’t no sugar sweet as you
When you soul is painted blue, baby
Falling apart
You’re reaching for something to save you
Feeling
Blue like the deep sea
Colors your country
When we’re driving home
Blue like a moonbeam
Drowning you baby
When you feel alone
So, I can’t stop the rain
Nor the sweet and aching pain in your heart
It’s just the way that we fall
When we’re standing one and all in the dark
And in the pieces we fall
I see the people one and all
Reach for the sky
And there’s something there to remind us
But nobody knows why
Blue like the deep sea
Colors your country
When we’re driving home
Blue like a moonbeam
Drowning you baby
When you feel alone
These are the things that you see
When you’re looking back at me through the pain
But we don’t have to fall
If we stand together tall in the rain
And in this world painted blue
I can only promise you
Holding your heart
Singing these songs
About a new start
When I’ll bathe you in sunbeams
Tattoo your daydreams
Across our sky
I’ll love you like Sunday
No clouds on the highway
When we’re driving home
Blue like the deep sea
Colors your country
When we’re driving home
Blue like a moonbeam
Drowning you baby
When you feel alone
Blue, blue
Blue, blue
Blue like the deep sea
Colors you baby
Blue like a moonbeam
Drowning you baby
