i'm bluer

radio plays another song
about heartache, and I sing along
though the words don't really match
my life, I admit I feel like that

see that couple holding hands
as they listen to a Texas band?
I remember days just like this
but all I have is an empty fist

and I'm bluer than those endless skies
that clothe the mountain ranges
thinking of all those days with you
those memories could fill pages
and if the spinning of the globe
brings you around back to me
baby, i want you to know
that's more than just alright with me

I took your picture off the wall
had to turn off your screensaver
kept your ringtone, but you won't call
so I'm doin myself no favors

and every time I walk by
that store where you liked to shop
i try to walk on the other side
but still I have to make the stop

and I'm bluer than those endless skies
that clothe the mountain ranges
thinking of all those days with you
those memories could fill pages
and if the spinning of the globe
brings you around back to me
baby, i want you to know
that's more than just alright with me

lay my head down to sleep
staring at the ceiling
though your love isn't mine to keep
i can't stop this feeling

and I'm bluer than those endless skies
that clothe the mountain ranges
thinking of all those days with you
those memories could fill pages
and if the spinning of the globe
brings you around back to me
baby, i want you to know
that's more than just alright with me
