Old 97's - Color Of A Lonely Heart Is Blue Lyrics
Well the sun's done gone,
Don't have me no light.
Moon and the man'll be rollin' all night.
Scorpio's up, bleeding all day into pasture.
And the hours behind are always too few;
The feeling that you will never see another like her.
Damn the lonesome ways
And the young and foolish days
And the kid who made the man who'd leave you.
With the sink of a ship,
I'm gonna dip into that hue
'til they color me like I colored you:
the color of a lonely heart.
The color of a lonely heart is blue.
Stars go off like flash-pot dots;
The sparkle of the candle power is stark.
Lift up your light
'Cause you'll never see a night that's blacker.
And the weight of it all gets heavier still.
Time (as?) it crawls a little slower until
Scorpio's up, bleeding all day into Cancer.
Damn the lonesome ways
And the young and foolish days
And the kid who made the man who'd leave you.
With the sink of a ship,
I'm gonna dip into that hue
'til they color me like I colored you:
the color of a lonely heart.
The color of a lonely heart is blue.
[x4]

Absolute Beauty of a song
Never knew this song until I read the novel "Flash Burnout" and saw this there. The title caught my attention and i immediately searched for this... I didnt regret! This is so beautiful...
Ps. Im born on 2002
I heard this on a radio station KPIG years ago. Then the station was gone. Loved this song that I went out and bought it..
I've seen them 3 times, and I have seen alot of shows. I got to talk to Murray, he's amazing.
4 people are entitled to their own opinions
So pretty
this is so hard to find, and they never play it live. Its beautiful
And can you believe this album came a full 10 years ago! This is still my favorite track of their's.
yeah, I have it downloaded. I love steel guitar.
Such a solid band, a real American rock and roll sound that I hope stays with us. Really appreciate their work
It is undoubtedly one of the Best Old 97s songs... Murray... thanks Men...
ouch..mi porbre corazon, ..bien fondo esta
D': Justo En El Kokoro Mi Hermano
Murray steals the show with this one. I love Rhett's tunes, but this is probably my favorite 97s song.
guitarkat99 oh, me too! It is their most beautiful for sure!
This band's cd seems to be playing in my stereo a lot.
Love it. <3 born in 97, love the 97's ^.^
Panic! At the disco
I agree with you! I have yet to find an album of theirs that is anything but awesome!
This band has more good cds than any group I can name.
Thank you so hard for uploading this.
worrying about who is going to be at a bar...classy!!!!!!!!!!
this is great stuff.. depends on ur frame of mind emaclynch.. get some rhythm man (or woman)
This song is soooooo coool!
@kristen7054 I hear you. I've had a few of those moments. When I first listened to the album I had had a kind of down day and had actually fallen asleep when it was playing until this tune cut through my nap, made me pay attention, and just perfectly captured a bunch of feelings for me.
