Better Blue

Gold is not my colour 
That's not something new
I'm not green enough for miracles
But there's a better blue

The night rolls on too long
That's not down to you
But like a clear sky in November
There's a better blue

I want to love you better
I want to love you better
I want to love you better
I want to love you better

I want to change my hue
Just by a shade or two

I'm not saying there's a path
I don't believe in fate
Everybody got to learn to live with themselves
Everybody learns too late

There are parts of myself
I'd rather keep from you
I'm not green enough for miracles
But there's a better blue

I'll try to love you better
I'll try to love you better
I'll try to love you better
I'll try to love you better

I can try and change my hue
Just by a shade or two

There's a better blue
