I'm lying in the dark listening to the rain   Reminds of you and makes me me sad all over again   Your measured swoons and sighs   Your hand me down whispered alibis      And it's easy to forgive but it's so hard, so hard to forget   And it's easy to see how deceit, deceit becomes regret   I can see now we're apart   How your mind played tricks on my heart      I never knew that you were untrue   There's so many shades of green   And I never believed that you would ever deceive   There's so many shades of green, so many shades of green      So sleep with your snakes and enjoy their viper's kiss   I want you know there's nothing about that I miss   I don't wish you any pain   But I don't ever want to see you again      So just shut your mouth   I've heard it all before   Shut it, just shut it   I don't wanna hear any more      I never knew that you were untrue   There's so many shades of green   And I never believed that you would ever deceive   There's so many shades of green   And you never knew that I was also untrue   There's so many shades of green   And you never believed that I could ever deceive   There's so many shades   So many shades of green
