John Prine - No Ordinary Blue lyrics
[John Prine - No Ordinary Blue lyrics]
Last night, turned on the TV
Looked out the window
And then pulled down the shades
And I came to the conclusion
My mind cannot be made
She said "Well what're you thinkin'?
I'm just a-wonderin'
Is it somethin' that I did?"
I said, "It's nothin', just somethin'
I picked up as a kid"
I hear a lot of empty spaces
I see a big hole in you
I feel an outline that traces
An imaginary path back to you
This ain't no ordinary blue
Last night for a split sec
I was a trainwreck i was a complicated guy
I hope we don't find this is the last time
We ever say goodbye
The orange moon is risin' on the horizon
Of the outskirts of my mind
I sat and listened as it glistened
It said, "Leave the past behind"
I hear a lot of empty spaces
I see a big hole in the view
I feel an outline that traces
An imaginary path back to you
This ain't no ordinary blue
Too cold to hold too deep to swim through
Too cold to hold too deep to swim through
Last night turned on the TV
Looked out the window
And then pulled down the shades
Looked out the window
And then pulled down the shades
And I came to the conclusion
My mind cannot be made
She said "Well what're you thinkin'?
I'm just a-wonderin'
Is it somethin' that I did?"
I said, "It's nothin', just somethin'
I picked up as a kid"
I hear a lot of empty spaces
I see a big hole in you
I feel an outline that traces
An imaginary path back to you
This ain't no ordinary blue
Last night for a split sec
I was a trainwreck i was a complicated guy
I hope we don't find this is the last time
We ever say goodbye
The orange moon is risin' on the horizon
Of the outskirts of my mind
I sat and listened as it glistened
It said, "Leave the past behind"
I hear a lot of empty spaces
I see a big hole in the view
I feel an outline that traces
An imaginary path back to you
This ain't no ordinary blue
Too cold to hold too deep to swim through
Too cold to hold too deep to swim through
Last night turned on the TV
Looked out the window
And then pulled down the shades
