Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Night falls and I'm alone
Skin, yeah, chilled me to the bone
You turned and you ran
Oh, yeah
Oh, slipped right from my hand
[Chorus]
Hey, blue on black, tears on a river
A push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on Jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, it's a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream doesn't change a thing
Don't bring you back
Blue on black
Oh, yeah, blue on black
[Verse 2]
Blind, oh, now I see
Truth, lies and in between
Wrong can't be undone
Oh, slipped from the tip of your tongue
[Chorus]
Hey, blue on black, tears on a river
A push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on Jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, it's a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream doesn't change a thing
Doesn't bring you back, yeah
Blue on black
Oh, blue on black
Oh, yeah
[Chorus]
Blue on black, tears on a river
A push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on Jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, it's a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream doesn't change a thing
Don't bring you back
Blue on black
Oh, yeah, blue on black
[Chorus]
Hey, blue on black, tears on a river
A push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on Jack, match on a fire
And cold on ice, it's a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream doesn't change a thing
Doesn't bring you back
[Outro]
Blue on black
Oh, blue on black
Oh, uh-oh, blue on black
Oh, blue on black
