Love wasn't always so kind to me
But as far as I can see
You take what you get
And you never forget
The people that may leave

And you take it all
And you feel it all
And you learn from everything
And there will always be the nights
Where love meant your name

So don't give me the silent treatment
Don't paint me for someone who doesn't need the healing
You're out of my life
But still in this light
You know me
Life won't let me forget
That you once were that shade of blue
That wasn't cold at all, at least for me

Life goes on, baby
Life goes on
Life goes on, baby
Life goes on
Life goes on, baby
Life goes on
Life goes on, baby
Life goes on

Don't give me the silent treatment
Don't paint me for someone who doesn't need the healing
You're out of my life
But still in this light
You know me
Life won't let me forget
That you once were that shade of blue
That wasn't cold at all, at least for me

So don't give me the silent treatment
Don't paint me for someone who doesn't need the healing
You're out of my life
But still in this light
You know me
Life won't let me forget
That you once were that shade of blue
That wasn't cold at all, at least for me
