Driving through the city Till we're lost Counting all the railroads That we cross You're in your father's sweatshirt It's way too big Take a mental picture Don't forget And you Were never mine to lose But I wish you well You know I do Been looking at the world through Shades of blue As overwhelming colors Pour from you On this avenue Look at all the mansions Aren't they great Let's laugh about the offers That we'd make We're passing by the graveyard Hold your breath Are you disappointed By me yet And you Were never mine to lose But I wish you well You know I do Been looking at the world through Shades of blue As overwhelming colors Pour from you On this avenue
