The sun's been shinin' down on the day and night

Gettin' away with murder, livin' a lucky life

All good things finally come to an end

Hit ya like a train if you try to pretend

Everybody knows that she broke your heart

Everybody knows that it's been tearing you apart

The boat you've been sailin' on has sprung a leak

You won't admit, but it's down to make you weep



When you got nothing left to lose

Might sound good, but I'm not sure that's true

You carry the pain around and that's what sees you through

The different shades of blue



Tell by the way you hang your head

The way you cast your eyes and the things you haven't said

You've got the past ten years written on your face

Your whole damn life's been one big race

Everybody goes there whether they want to or not

Everybody starts to hold on to what they got

And start to settle in with the long haul?

Real life baby, oh you can't have it all



When you got nothing left to lose

Might sound good, but I'm not sure that's true

You carry the pain around and that's what sees you through

The different shades of blue



When you got nothing left to lose

Might sound good, but I'm not sure that's true

You carry the pain around and that's what sees you through

The different shades of blue
