Lyrics
[verse]
The porch light burns for someone who won't come
The radio keeps playing our old favorite song
I set two cups of coffee out of pure old habit
Then remember one chair's empty, one chair's static
[chorus]
Blue, like the hour after midnight falls
Blue, like the shadows on these quiet walls
I never thought that missing you could feel so deep and true
Every corner of this house is painted blue
[verse]
I wear your old sweater though it doesn't fit me right
Just to feel you near me through another lonely night
The neighbors ask if I'm alright, I say I'm fine
But the color of my Tuesdays hasn't changed in time
[chorus]
Blue, like the hour after midnight falls
Blue, like the shadows on these quiet walls
I never thought that missing you could feel so deep and true
Every corner of this house is painted blue
[bridge]
Maybe one day the grey will finally break to gold
Maybe one day I'll stop reliving stories I've been told
But tonight I'll sit here with the window open wide
And let this color settle, let it wash across my mind
[chorus]
Blue, like the hour after midnight falls
Blue, like the shadows on these quiet walls
I never thought that missing you could feel so deep and true
Every corner of this house is painted blue
