Blue green stayed low

She got high and dropped out of school

But she don’t mess around much anymore

We used to scream and chase the moon

Ice cold cases opened up at noon

We were just kicking the world around

Now she don’t need no more songs

Says she’s putting them all where they belong

But they’ll keep playing in my mind Lou Reed, the Beach Boys,

We were children once playing with toys

And skipping under that waterfall was something new

And I want to go but I can’t move

I’m stuck here looking like a fool

And I have no idea how my blue green has turned into you

She said that “16, that was nice”,

Now she’s breaking our old 45’s by throwing them out that open door

She says “You know, I’ve grown and I left you back long ago”

Hell, like I didn’t know

Now she don’t need no more songs

Says she’s putting them where they belong

But they’ll keep playing in my mind

Like Jackson Browne and CCR

We’re rolling around in the back of my father’s car

And working on our own night moves

And I want to go, but I can’t leave

I’m stuck here shaking like a leaf

And I have no idea how my blue green has turned into you

The colors are still the same

But my blue green has gone away

She’s just a shadow throwing stones at my soul

We used to laugh, but now we don’t

We just pay bills and float around the home

And she might be walking

But I’m dancing into theold lines

And she don’t need no more songs

Says she’s putting them where they belong

But they’ll keep playing in my mind

The Rolling Stones singing I Miss You

Baby girl that disco beat always made you move

And I watched you shatter them on the concrete next to my old Zeppelin II

And I want to go but I can’t move

I’ve got nothing left, I’ve got nothing to lose

And I have no idea how my blue green has turned into you
