True Blue Songtext
von Gary Louris

Rusty wire bent to make a fence
Rows and rows of houses
Cold and stale until tomorrow
Rustling waters coloured by their stones
Some ungrateful morning
Kick the sand, stir up the powder
Strip it down to what you can believe in
Place it on what is right and true blue
True blue


Today is the day my branches bear their fruit
And all my labour will be rewarded
Then I awake, it′s like starting over
Riches and their thorns rumble where they lay
Revealing sparkling secrets
To hold you would bring happiness
Your absence sorrow
Strip it down to what you can rescue
Place it on what is right and true blue
True blue

Shifting stages and shapes
Giving up ground now, taking another's place
Holding one′s own as if you were just born
Flyin' away, feel without a trace
Feel fulfilment in this small corner
With no possessions to create sorrow

Strip it down to what you can believe in
Place it on what is right and true blue
True blue
True blue
True blue
