Looks like another day is slipping through my window shade   And chasing the dark away sneaking into my room again   Are you a sad and lonely thief come to steal my peace of mind?   The only peace I find is pretending that you're still lying next to me      So why why why the sun   Has got to shine shine shine   Why don't it just stay away?   Why do dreams have to fade      Into all these shades of blue where I wait for you?   Pray love reaches through all these shades, shades of blue   When you close your eyes feel me by your side   I will wait for you in all these shades of blue      Thinking back on my mistakes I can't undo all the days that I misused   I thought that you'd always stay it's hard to face the simple truth that   That time brings no relief and time is all you need you said   Had to go and clear out your head   While you're trying to decide if you'll ever come back to me      Why why why do we have to cry cry cry   Tell me why this has to be   Why don't you give in to me      Baby all these shades of blue where I wait for you   Pray love reaches through all these shades, shades of blue   When you close your eyes feel me by your side   I will wait for you here in all these shades of blue   Here in all these shades of blue      Why did you have to leave?   Why did you have to set me free?   Why did you have to go?      And why did you have to leave?   Why did you have to set me free?   Why did you have to go?      Baby, all these shades of blue where I wait for you   Pray love reaches through all these shades, shades of blue   When you close your eyes feel me by your side   I will wait for you in all these shades of blue   Here in all these shades of blue
