Paul Brady Blue World Lyrics

Blue World Lyrics

There you go again, pretending that the world is blue.
And you see red when I
explain, that I don't share your point of view.
Well I say open up your eyes,
for the world is like a rainbow.
And maybe blue is just the colour of the
world inside of you.

-bridge-
But that kind of blue world, that's not
my world
I don't want to paint your pictures, 
I ain't here to sing your
sorrows.
Ain't got time to be a hero, 
I don't want to be your
poet.

-chorus-
Everybody feel the same pain, everybody doing
time.
I can't be the one you're needing,
I can just be who I am, who I
am.

We all want a world with a perfect constitution.
Believe me, we
all want it now, don't want to wait another day.
And maybe if this world's
to change, it's going to take a revolution.
But in the meantime, be my
friend, and don't turn your head away

-bridge-
For your kind of blue
world, that's not my world.
I don't want to paint your pictures. 
(I
don't want to write your dreams.)
I ain't here to sing your
sorrows.
(Your blue world is not my scene.)
Ain't got time to be a
hero.
(You can tell me, that's a crime.)
I don't want to be your
poet.
(Crying out your ancient rhyme.)

-chorus-
Everybody feel the
same pain, everybody doing time.
I can't be the one you're needing,
I can
just be who I am, who I am.
