New Shade of Blue

Lyrics

The rumors abound,
Talk all over this small town.
People say I’m over you;
They say I look great
And on occasion see me out on a date.
But what they all see ain’t all true …

I’m just a new shade of blue.
I’m moving on but I’m missing you.
I’m doing fine, cradled in the healing hands of time.
I’m not over you; I’m just a new shade of blue.

I saw you today down at our favorite corner cafe
By candlelight at a table for two.
I caught your eye,
We waved hello, we waved goodbye.
You walked away.
That’s when I knew …

I’m just a new shade of blue.
I’m moving on but I’m missing you.
I’m doing fine, cradled in the healing hands of time.
I’m not over you; I’m just a new shade of blue.
