lyrics

Blue, A Purple Shade
Words & Music by JAMESPARKER

Oh well I feel like a fool
How could the woman be so cruel
I thought I played her by the rules
I guess the games were bound to cool...

Oh baby, baby, now please don't let me fade
Like a dead rose, blue, a purple shade...

Oh Lord I'm tired, cold and fired
I need a friend I can count on
Only lady, aah she used me
Only girl I had is gone, gone...

Crazy child, now she could drive me wild
I won't be faded, blue, a purple shade...

Well now I'm standing by the road
I've got no real fixed address
Still I'm burdened by the load
Take away my loneliness
Girl I'm-a waiting, change your mind
Light my lucky cigarette
Good love ain't easy to find
It's the last chance we may, chance we may get...
Oh yeah, Come on...

Bridge

There's no bright stars in the night sky
You never came to say goodbye
Oh one an eagle, and you a dove
You never could believe in Love...

And as I left, I looked up to the moon
Oh slowly fading, blue, a purple shade...
