Xtc - Blue In Paradise lyrics

(co-written by andy partridge and tracey bryn of voice of the beehive) Silver lining changed to grey skies When a red-eyed angel waved goodbye In my lifetime, i may find him once again to my surprise I'll wait here, patiently and you may just return to find me Chorus: Blue in paradise, the paint runs down Just like my teardrops Blue in paradise, i'll paint the town Until the hurt stops Make a wish on every rainbow for the colours to reappear Green with envy, wishing you home, red faced mad i wait alone I'll stay here, one day dear you may just return to find me Chorus And if you return, nothing will be different And if you return, nothing really will have changed The red of my heart is black and blue now Broken up and dragged around I'll lay my dreams all down to sleep here I'll close my eyes to hear no sound I'm cryin', i'm dyin' But i will hold my breath 'til you find me
