Emily Jane White - Blue lyrics

Blue, so blue was your love
That I held and pursued
And true, so true, the black hand
Oh it takes you back
And you turn to a figure in the light
No wait, but you turn back

And we danced in diamond dust
Oh yea, we danced in diamond dust

Oh black
Oh black and blue - I was when I left you
A figment of the past, a battered highway
Cow skulls marking death
Baby's breath and dried misery you
Left on my door

And we danced so hard that the cold
Cold black rain fell
And the blood on the ground, on the ground
Washed away
And your body was gone and it left no trace
But a trail of ash has led
Me to this dark place

Did you see in the way that she did run
Run faster than anyone?
Away from the snake-eyed mule of a man
Yes you can, yes you can, yes you can
Yes you can, yes you can, yes you can

Blue, so blue
Was your love that I held and pursued
And true, so true, the black hand
Oh it takes you back
