Lyrics

[Verse 1]
From a cardboard hotel bed
To the reckless things I said
My intentions were cruel
Knowing I came here to leave you
[Verse 2]
With a sigh you said, "Okay"
And the silent dinner came
Where the birds ate our food
Knowing I came here to leave you
[Chorus]
And it was so sad, we could only laugh
I held your hand like it was all I had
Out of the blue
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
I knew
[Verse 3]
On the tragic cobblestones
I implied that we be better off alone
No, there's no fooling you
You know I came here to leave you
[Chorus]
And it was so sad, we could only laugh
Why the fuck would I give up on that?
Out of the blue
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
I knew
Out of the blue
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
I knew
[Verse 4]
As we were reaching for the door
I loved you deeper than I ever had before
Oh the richest of blue
Knowing I can't leave without you
