I never looked behind me      Never saw the shadows smile      Never watched the red light warning      All I wanted was to be in touch with you.            Took a chance on inner healing.      Said it was the way to go      Find a way to make you happy      Can't do it, never could but what a show      Oh, no.            I look to you, you look to me      It's all the same, just one big game      You say it's me, I say it's you      You touched my love, with Shades of Blue            But maybe now      When you lose control      You'll see what I could give,      Trapped inside your heart,      I'm dyin' to live.            One man without a mission      Like an eagle, flying slow      I wanted to kiss the blue sky,      But all the clouds were hanging far too low.            And then one day, I looked away,      Into the air, the Lord was there.      He broke the sky, the sun flew by,      I died for you, Shades of Blue.            But maybe now      When you lose control      You'll see what I could give,      Trapped inside your heart,      I'm dyin' to live.            And if the moon is bright      The stars would all kiss you,      The colors of my heart      Are Shades of Blue.            But maybe now      When you lose control      You'll see what I could give,      Trapped inside your heart,      I'm dyin' to live.            When you lose control      You'll see what I could give,      Trapped inside your heart,      I'm dyin' to live, dyin' to live.      Dyin' to live.
