Sitting in the glare of the neon smoke
Always mistaken for the light of hope
Mourning in a lonely woman's eyes
She's fallen one more time

Feeling the weight of the morning sky
Running again from another lie
From gray to midnight I've been through
Every broken hearted hue

You may think I'm lying but I swear that it's true
If you think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you?
I've seen it all in different shades of blue
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Faded photo of a house for sale
Cold dark pewter of a casket rail
There's not too much these eyes ain't seen
Between the yellow and the green

You may think I'm lying but I swear that it's true
If you think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you?
Well, I've seen it all in different shades of blue

Every time we fell in love
Breaking down and making up
The azure of a new sunrise
Well, the shadow of a moonlit night
Standing in the ocean laughing
Watching as the waves come crashing
Seeing colors that we never even knew

You may think I'm lying but I swear, I swear it's true
If you think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you? Well, I've seen it all
Oh, I've seen it all in different shades of blue

Well, I've seen it all in different shades of blue
Different shades of blue
