Lyrics
Blue in Paradise
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Silver lining changed to grey skies
When a red-eyed angel waved goodbye
In my lifetime, I may find him once again to my surprise
I'll wait here, patiently and you may just return to find me
Chorus:
Blue in Paradise, the paint runs down
Just like my teardrops
Blue in Paradise, I'll paint the town
Until the hurt stops
Make a wish on every rainbow for the colours to reappear
Green with envy, wishing you home, red faced mad I wait alone
I'll stay here, one day dear you may just return to find me
Chorus
And if you return, nothing will be different
And if you return, nothing really will have changed
The red of my heart is black and blue now
Broken up and dragged around
I'll lay my dreams all down to sleep here
I'll close my eyes to hear no sound
I'm cryin', I'm dyin'
But I will hold my breath
'Til you find me
