Lyrics
Blue Just Looks Black Rick Adams originally released 2013
There’s just a few things /I’ve picked up along the way
How can I best make the pain go away?
Now is the time/ I am in need
But what I can’t see --can’t hurt me
So turn out the lights/ If you’re leaving me blue
Don’t want to see a thing/ That reminds me of you
Turn out the lights/ As you leave me sweetheart
Cause Blue Just Looks Black in the Dark
You can’t stop a train/ Or an old hurricane
I can’t stop you / From leaving today
But being alone/ Is all in my mind
It’s time for me now to go blind
So turn out the lights...
What works for me/ Might not work for you
But I’m happy now/ Black is better than Blue
I’ll pull down the shades/ To block out the day
Darkness is where I’ll remain
So turn out the lights...
