Where It's Blue

I guess everybody heard

You left me

Nobody said a word, but I can tell

In how they talk

All the, "Call me if you need me"

"How you holdin' ups?"

Come steady for a few weeks

But they're gone within a month

They say time heals, but how long does it take?

I love you more than when you walked away

You tell me not to call, but what's a man like me to do?

I guess the fire burns the hottest where it's blue

I tried to drown it out with noise

But there you whispered

In the silence, baby, is where I hear you scream

Holdin' on has got me hurtin'

Letting go is only pain

Whether this or that

It's just a matter of fact

That it all just fuels the flame

They say time heals, but how long does it take?

I love you more than when you walked away

You tell me not to call, but what's a man like me to do?

I guess the fire burns the hottest where it's blue

All of my friends are scared to say your name

Whenever I'm around

'Cause they know I'll get to runnin'

Whenever I hear that sound

Now that you're put back together

And the years have made you whole

I'll fake a smile

But I'm still broke

They say time heals, but how long does it take?

I love you more than when you walked away

You tell me not to call, but what's a man like me to do?

I guess the fire burns the hottest where it's blue

Baby, that fire's still burnin' for you
