Once in a while
You ask for a smile
And what am I going to say?
My tears are real
I like how they feel
I like how they carry me away
Baby I'm warning you
I'm happiest when I'm blue
Now I'm bleeding like watercolors
Keep me dreaming in pale blues and greens
Keep on running like watercolors
Lead me back to the sea
I'm just a fool
I talk out of school
I do things I should not do
But I'm not ashamed
It's the way that I'm made
I'm sorry but I'll never change for you
At least I can tell the truth
That I'm happiest when I'm blue
Now I'm bleeding like watercolors
Keep me dreaming in pale blues and greens
Keep on running like watercolors
Lead me back to the sea
Nightshade and Opaline
Blackbirds and faded dreams
And I'm falling, falling down
I keep falling, falling down
Baby I'm warning you
I'm happiest when I'm blue
When I'm blue
Now I'm bleeding like watercolors
Keep me dreaming in pale blues and greens
Keep on running like watercolors
Wide and open and blue like the sea
Always running like watercolors
Ocean colors that bleed for me
Keep on running like watercolors
And lead me back to the sea
Just lead me back to the sea
