Lyrics
Kathryn In Blue
Music & Lyrics: Allen Wentz
© From Wentz It Came, ASCAP
Kathryn in blue by the water
Nothing was true that they taught her
And now she believes in a picture someone else has painted
Now not alone, she wonders how it might turn out
Not really sure, but somewhere lies a bit of doubt
Kathryn is blue by the water
Wearing the ring that he bought her
Compromise winning yet another day
Picking her dress, and cake for all the people there
Settling down, into a life that goes nowhere
A little time for contemplation, and a drink or two
Security is such temptation, but a love thats true, is worth the wait
harmonica
Shedding her tears and wondering how it might have been
If she had only listened to her heart back then
Kathryn in blue by the water
She never really believed what they taught her
And now her better days are right before her
It has been said, too many times to count I'm sure
Everyone has to love for its the only cure
