[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, I told myself
Music was all there was
Like a ghost town in quarantine
No road in, no road out
Music was my mistress
My one true witness
The prayer of a desperate nation
A cheap fragrance, penetrating light
Out of mind, out of sight
[Chorus]
There's not much more to say
I wouldn't have it any other way
I love her, she loves me
She loves we, she loves you
Music is blue
[Verse 2]
She had me in chains at her altar
Busking in the village like a real punter
A jealous maid, I stole to feed her
That's the lie told by a cheater
We robbed Pluto, we ate nothing but beer
Made love on Sunday
We wept and wept and howled and howled
And played hooky on Monday
[Chorus]
There's not much more to say
I wouldn't have it any other way
I love her, she loves me
She loves we, she loves you
Music is blue
[Verse 3]
Once upon a time, like Martinez slime
Music was all there was
Like a private island in quarantine
No boat in, no boat out
Then I found another love
I see music loves you too
The fairies' lie must have been true
To bring me to you
Now everything, everywhere, is blue
[Chorus]
There's not much more to say
I wouldn't have it any other way
I love her, she loves me
She loves we, she loves you
Music is blue
There's not much more to say
I wouldn't have it any other way
I love her, she loves me
She loves we, she loves you
Music is blue
