These blue shoes seem to suit me well,
When I feel like hell,
As I do now that you're gone.
Lost and lonely since you stopped caring,
I've been wearing my new shoes.
I've been wearing my blue shoes.

You and I made the perfect pair,
It don't seem fair,
I loved you more than you know.
Sorry I'm such a sorry state,
But while I wait for some good news,
I'll be wearing my blue shoes.

Don't feel like walking strong,
Shufflin' along on my way home.
Trudgin' down that shopping street,
Where we used to meet.
But I ain't buying.
I'm wearing my blue shoes and crying.

These blue shoes seem to suit my soul,
Since you shot that hole.
Since you shot that hole in my heart.
And if I wind up on the sidewalk bleeding,
I won't be needing my new shoes.
Won't be needing my blue shoes.

These blue shoes seem to suit me well,
When I feel like hell,
As I do now that you're gone.
Lost and lonely since you stopped caring,
I've been wearing my new shoes.
I've been wearing my blue shoes.
