It's been a year to the day
Since I fired the engines and sped away
Past the weeping willow
Where we carved our names
Past the open field
Where summer nights would fade into morning
And I was so naive
How could I ever let you go so carelessly Running from the only truth I've ever known
I once was green, now I'm blue
Because a love like yours is overdue
Through the fall and the spring
I yearned to feel something
Sleepless nights in stranger's arms
Getting so close but my heart was so far away
And I was so naive
How I could ever let you go so carelessly
Running from the only truth I've ever known
I once was green, now I'm blue
Because a love like yours is overdue
Because a love like yours
Plays over and over in my head
Like a melody I can't forget
Over and over and over and over again
And I was so naive
How could I ever let you go so carelessly
Running from the only truth I've ever known
I once was green, now I'm blue
Because a love like yours is overdue
