Blue Is More Than Blue

Blue Is More Than Blue

I can swim at night among them gigantic ice cubes
I can undress some goddess at the top of a mountain of truth
and in each of my smiles I could offer infinity
I could disguise all the drama at the bottom of a cup of tea

I’m a prince
I’m a devil
I’m a curtain on fire
I’m a prince
I’m a devil
I’m just a shadow on the wall

just because blue
is more than blue
if you think about it
you can make it true

in the dust of some hysterical horses
I’ve seen how them farewells can make you grow
to the apology of crime
and to the grey faith below

there is no forgiveness
if you don’t give a dime
there is no salvation
for whole humanity if it’s not sublime
there is no word at all
for such a betrayal

just because blue
is more than blue
if you think about it
you can make it true

for such a letter
is more cruel than a denial
for such a way to dive
is more dishonest than a lie

you can pick me up through the cards
I’m always some spade paladin at the end
waiting for the sun to shine
cause I don’t ask nothing
I am never waiting for no promises
cause I feel I couldn’t be dumb and blind
to the missing parts of the play they rhyme

oh yeah cause it’s always blue
you can strand the curtain
even fire in the sky is sometimes blue

I’m a prince
I’m a devil
I’m a curtain on fire
I’m a prince
I’m a devil
I’m just a butterfly under your glass

let me see
this strange manner of yours
when you start a decay
while it’s time to make things true

cause it’s blue
and it’s more than blue
let me see
this missing shadow from you

oh yeah pick up the picture
and let me drown into some painting
they all look drawn by a blind soul

oh yeah cause blue is more than blue
