[Verse 1]
I'm waking up from a dream
I can feel but I can’t see
I'm suffocating the spark
Of divine you made in me
But you were more than the grain of sand
That made the pearl
Two fingers on the dial
[Chorus 1]
And when you think of beauty I'll be there
Alone behind the eye of your electric stare
Reflections in your mirror I’ve become
Alone with you, the price of blue
Alone with you, the price of blue
[Verse 2]
So you can keep to yourself
With the bеst of everything
And I can wander thе wreck
Amazed and shivering
But who wouldn't take something
For nothing
For nothing and run
Two pages into one
[Chorus 2]
And when you find your wisdom, I'll be gone
The comfort of the proof of what was wrong
So look me in the eye as long as you can stand
Alone with you, the price of blue
Alone with you, the price of blue
