Lyrics

HAZY SHADE OF BLUE

I climbed up to the mountain on a winding, rocky trail
Found myself a river bed and layed down my weary head
The cool stream caressed me and washed my sins away
But if you look in my eyes, you can see they're still the same...

Hazy shade of blue, yeah ? it's true
hazy blue
Can't go back in time
and erase the things that leave imprints
on my mind

I could lay like a dead man
until the evening hours fade
doin' nothing but staring up at the empty sky
remembering times I ran in perfect fields of green
under skies so clear I thought they'd never seem...

this hazy shade of blue, yeah ? it's true
hazy blue
can't go back in time
and erase the things that leave imprints
on my mind

[bridge]
But I can live, I can dream
I can feel, and I can scream
I can hope, I can pray
And I can love ? you

Didn't I try hard enough to keep our love alive?
Did I say anything that you think I should deny?
Can you really blame me for doing the best that I could?
I guess I thought that love should be anything but...

a hazy shade of blue
it's true ? hazy blue
I can't go back in time
and erase the things that leave imprints on my mind
