Lyrics


Sometime I weep, but weepin's not my game
Sometime I cry, but I'm laughin' all the same
(These two opening lines are with some vocal distortion, probably sung
through the harp mic.)

Sometime I'm blue, but blue is not my color
Sometime I'm green, green like any other - lover

And I never know, where to draw the line
And I never see, the dangers
And I never know, where the boundary lies
But you, you, you

Sometime I'm bitter, I taste so bad inside
Sometime I worry, that I'm gonna lose my tiny mind

Sometime I'm blue, but blue is not my favorite color
Sometime I'm red, and I see great big balls of fire

And I never know, where to draw the line
And I never see, the dangers
And I never know, what about the lies
But you, you, you

It's a long, long, long way
Mmmmm, yes it is
It's a long way down
It's a long, long, long way
It's a long way to fall
(Check the great backing vocals in this stanza)

B3 Organ and harp solos...

And I never know, where to draw the line
And I never know, where the darkness lies
But you, you, you
Yeah

It's a long, long, long way
It's a long way down
It's a long, long, long way
It's a long way to fall

It's long, long way to crawl up to the mountain
It's a long way down
It's a long, long, long way
It's a long way down

Blue is not my color
It's not my color
It's not my color



If Things Could be Different (don't pay attention to the right lyrics as they appear from the scan.

Blue is available only in the Mick Jagger single God Gave me Everything. I have the Dutch version.

If Things could be different is available only in the Japanese version of God Gave me Everything as a bonus track.
