Lyrics
In Blue
I was hoping, I could change things
but I cannot bend the truth
be assured that I really do care - I -
cherished every moment with you
under my shoes i feel
the dust just started to move
believe me i hate to leave you here
in blue
but i have to face the fact
got to head home
and where I go to I must arrive alone
you´re feeling where this
journey will take me
I pray for a few more weeks
I cannot pretend
that my heart is easy 'cause
we were always playin' for keeps
under my feet i know
the ground will soon divide
guess i will relocate myself and dulge
in blue
It´s hard to imagine to
head home alone
singin`your praise in a different tone
as a sunray, as a raindrop
i´ll be coming back
and a you should know by now that it´s
only phantasy we lack
(in) all of these years you have been
the best that ever happened to me
but this is not a love song no more
right now It´s just about me
I build a shrine for every memory
but I leave you in blue
I tried my best but now I´m heading down that road
in blue, in blue, in blue...
