Song Lyrics

It's been weeks since you're gone
There's no healing taking place
Everything I try feels wrong
Everything I do is just a waste
I still don't know why you left
You just ran out of love I guess
I keep sinking lower
'Til the pain takes over

I wish I had a blue guitar
To play the pain that's in my heart
'Cause I would play it soft and low
In shapes and shades of indigo
And as each blue note slowly dies
It falls like rain out of the skies
They'll be no more pain in my heart
I wish I had a blue guitar

I didn't see you pull away
I didn't see your love disappear
Gone like a shadow in a shallow grave
You left without a doubt or a tear
Don't know why my love's still alive
It just tears me up inside
And there's no consoling
Now the tears keep falling
I wish I had a blue guitar
To play the pain that's in my heart
'Cause I would play it soft and low
In shapes and shades of indigo
And as each blue note slowly dies
It falls like rain out of the skies
They'll be no more pain in my heart
I wish I had a blue guitar

Now the memories wait in the stillness
I'll join them soon enough
There's no redemption in this quiet
Just our forgotten love

I wish I had a blue guitar
To play the pain that's in my heart
'Cause I would play it soft and low
In shapes and shades of indigo
And as each blue note slowly dies
It falls like rain out of the skies
They'll be no more pain in my heart
I wish I had a blue guitar
