Threw my coins out on the wind Crossed my fingers and tried again Straight ahead, a collision course I can't control it anymore Fate is but a rendezvous Paths I followed to get to you Wore my boots down to the heels How bitter disappointment feels Out in the blue Memories like fires glow Can we forget them, I don't think so Marched in lines against the odds I can't forgive the things I saw Teardrops fall and arrows fly How many times I've watched you cry Promises I broke to you All the things I'm going through Out in the blue Oh captain, steer me clear Make the nightmares disappear Some things better left alone Let someone else carry the load Every year takes its toll Time keeps cutting at my soul I know you're out there just like me Is this the way it's supposed to be Out in the blue
