John Prine - No Ordinary Blue Lyrics
Last night
Turned on the TV
Looked out the window
And then pulled down the shades
And I came to
My mind could not be made
She said "Well what're you thinkin'?
I'm just a-wonderin'
Is it somethin' that I did?"
I said "It's nothin'
Just somethin'
I picked up as a kid"
I hear a lot of empty spaces
I feel an outline that traces
An imaginary path back to you
This ain't no ordinary blue
Last night
For a split sec
I was a train-wreck
I was a complicated guy
I hope we don't find
This's the last time
We ever say "Goodbye"
The orange gleam
Is risin'
On the horizon
Of the outskirts of my mind
I sat and listened
As it glistens
It says "Leave the past behind"
I hear a lot of empty spaces
I see a big hole in the view
I feel an outline that traces
An imaginary path back to you
This ain't no ordinary blue
Too cold to hold
Too deep to swim to
Too cold to hold
Too deep to swim to
Last night
Turned on the TV
Looked out the window
And then pulled down the shades

John Prine No Ordinary Blue Comments
After my scathing review of "Lost Dogs and Mixed Blessings" I doubt that John Prine would ever talk to me. But his music sure does :)
This is on John Prine's website:

and Oh Boy Records regretfully announce the postponement of the
following John Prine Summer tour dates. We are currently working on
rescheduling the affected dates and will share updated information as

Alternatively, refunds are available at original point of purchase.
In consultation with his doctors, John has been advised that he has an
elevated risk for a stroke. He will have surgery this week to insert a
stent which will remedy the issue. He looks forward to a full and
speedy recovery.

To my friend Wayne
Saw Mr. Prine for the first time in 1979 with Bonnie Raitt and Jerry Jeff. John took the show. He never ever stops writing the most amazing songs on this planet. Thanks for making me laugh and cry for most of my life John Prine! Oh, and thanks for the thumb pick. I still have it.
Love it.
Enjoy your music thank you
Saw John in Portland a few weeks back. Blew me away! Saw him perform last time in 1974 with JJW. He's even better now.
Was supposed to be seeing John tonight in Dublin Ireland didn't get to the concert I'm heartbroken 💔
Prine is just a simple legend.
Best song of the new album (in my humble opinion).
I like when I get to heaven myself...but you can't go wrong with most Prine!
AGREED !!!
Prine Shine 🍑
thank you for sharing
this love it
Can't wait to see you in Beaver Dam with our boy Tyler. I wasn't sure it could get better than you and Kacey, but you've managed to do it. I'm one Happy Enchilada!
