BRIGHTER SHADE OF BLUE
Written by Lauren Laverne, Marie du Santiago
Sung by Lauren Laverne

As if I’ve ever been broke in my whole life,
As if I’ve ever been known to tell you lies.
I know you want me with you now,
You know I can’t be with you now,
If you let me down.

Then I’ll come back to you,
A brighter shade of blue.

From the start I was warned,
What it would be like.
It didn’t stop me at all,
I wouldn’t fight it.
And now I cannot be without,
You know I want it with me now,
Someone let me down.

I’ll come back to you,
A brighter shade of blue.

When we did it at home,
All things were different.
We did it out in the cold,
And no-one listened.
The things we did to see it out,
It makes me laugh it makes me proud,
Never let me down.

Well I’ll come back to you,
A brighter shade of blue.

People think things are wrong,
Well they know nothing,
When they find out they’ll know,
We’ll show them all something.
I never shadowed you with doubt,
Your sense of humour wears me out,
But that’s allowed.

We’ll step out into,
A brighter shade of blue.
We step out into,
A brighter shade of blue.
