The Sun's been shinin' down on me day and night Gettin' away with murder, livin' a lucky life All good things finally come to an end Hit ya like a train if you try to beat it Everybody knows that she broke your heart Everybody knows that it's tearing you apart The row you've been sailin' on sprung a leak You won't admit, but it's down to make you weep When you got nothing left to lose Might sound good, but I'm not sure that's true You carry the pain around and that's what sees you through The different shades of blue Tell by the way you hang your head The way you cast your eyes and things you haven't said You've gathered past ten years written on your face Your whole damn life's been one big race Everybody goes there whether they want to or not Everybody starts to hold on to what they got And start to settle in with the long? Real life ain't, oh, you can't have it all When you got nothing left to lose Might sound good, but I'm not sure that's true You carry the pain around and that's what sees you through The different shades of blue When you got nothing left to lose Might sound good, but I'm not sure that's true You carry the pain around and that's what sees you through The different shades of blue
