No Ordinary Blue

Last night

Turned on the TV

Looked out the window

And then pulled down the shades

And I came to

The conclusion

My mind could not be made

She said "Well what're you thinkin'?

I'm just a-wonderin'

Is it somethin' that I did?"

I said "It's nothin'

Just somethin'

I picked up as a kid"

I hear a lot of empty spaces

I see a big hole in the view

I feel an outline that traces

An imaginary path back to you

This ain't no ordinary blue

Last night

For a split sec

I was a train-wreck

I was a complicated guy

I hope we don't find

This's the last time

We ever say "Goodbye"

The orange gleam

Is risin'

On the horizon

Of the outskirts of my mind

I sat and listened

As it glistens

It says "Leave the past behind"

I hear a lot of empty spaces

I see a big hole in the view

I feel an outline that traces

An imaginary path back to you

This ain't no ordinary blue

Too cold to hold

Too deep to swim to

Too cold to hold

Too deep to swim to

Last night

Turned on the TV

Looked out the window

And then pulled down the shades
