A Darker Shade Of Blue

There’s a bar just past our empty house down off Danners Rd

a double shot of Cuervo might lighten up my load

All I’m trying to do tonight is rearrange my mind

I never was the all night drinkin kind


Through the tears you said you loved us both and I'll take that to my grave

I told you that you’d have to choose that's just how I was raised

He grew up right beside me close as one is to two

Never thought that he would play me for the fool


No forgiveness or new beginnings That’s it we’re at the end

It’s an ugly situation since you run off to be with him

It’s one thing to lose your best friend never mind losing two

the sky just turned a darker shade of blue


I just can’t forget the past I just can’t move on

feels like I’m stuck inside some old country song

your cheatin heart yeah play me blue eyes cryin in the rain

Maybe one more round might help to ease the pain


No forgiveness or new beginnings That’s it we’re at the end

It’s an ugly situation since you run off to be with him

It’s one thing to lose your best friend never mind losing two

the sky just turned a darker shade of blue
