The Secret Life of Blue - Róisín O

There is a girl I see from time to time, reluctantly

She lives in a world of hungry lies, red hair, brown eyes

Her feet they stumble over cracked pathways

While her mind lingers on easier days

Lingers on easier days

She can’t win, there’s no way in

She’ll creep up on you, make you think you want to

Live that life, that secret life

The secret life of blue

You can’t see the tree that’s growing in her mind, fulling up her mind

If you cared to look deeper, you might find

The roots have bound themselves to you, now you’re the only one

Now you’re the only one who knows the secret life of blue

She can’t win, there’s no way in

She’ll creep up on you, make you think you want to

Live that life, that life

The secret life of blue
