Lighter Shade of Blue

She doesn't smile like me
She doesn't make you weak
And she'll never know
How to make you laugh

But she won't make you cry
She'll never break your heart
Like I used to
If you only knew
All the words I couldn't say

When I close my eyes I see you
In my dreams you will be near
Won't let you disappear
But I'm here on my own

When I close my eyes and listen
I am crying out for you
In the center of my heart
But I'm here on my own

I think I'm over you
But it's not true
Its just a
Lighter shade of blue

Can you still hear me breath
When you touched me deep
Can you still hear the sounds
Can you feel the heat

I was just too scared
To let you own the deepest
Part of me
I left paradise and
I did not even say goodbye

When I close my eyes I see you
In my dreams you will be near
Won't let you disappear
But I'm here on my own

When I close my eyes and listen
I am crying out for you
In the center of my heart
But I'm here on my own

I think I'm over you
But it's not true
Its just a
Lighter shade of blue
