Blue

Alas, our love is gone

At least I don't where it is

I know I lost it in my song once

But I thought I found it in your kiss

So I went and had my skull cleaned

They gave me a suitcase for my rage

And a balloon to hold my steam

And a tightrope to embrace

Now I know how to live alone

In a crowd or in your arms

But I don't know how to be alive

In the mirror or at your side

"It's not so easy," said the rain

"You want the wound but not the pain

To be forgiven but not betrayed

To stand naked and unashamed

It's not so easy," said the rain

Give me your tongue

Don't say a word

Give me your hunger and your pride

I'll give you the song, the mockingbird

I'll give you the color of the sky
