Steve Wynn - Shades of Blue lyrics

I know someday we'll look back on the way we've lived our days Working like detectives digging through the muck and haze Count our blessings if we still can find our way through Shades of blue I guess someday we'll do our best to pick ourselves apart And try to draw a line directly from the mind into to the heart Swimming through the stream of memories and films in Shades of blue I don't know what happened, what went wrong or if I even care burned out in a firefall or drowned in oceans of despair And now I try to draw a line to here back from the better times I lose myself in words and rhymes And if we have our wits and want to travel back in time We may amaze ourselves with all the things that we might find Lost in wine and roses, bits of me and you and Shades of Blue
