The more I try to bind my love
the more it gets set free
then I realize the only thing
that's bound right now is me
We say we'd like to turn away
and leave this all behind
I know this thing that's got us down
will set us free in time

We're just tainted blue
all I think about is you
while you think of someone else
right now no one else will do
so I look to you for help
This will pass like these things do
I'll still be me, and you'll be you
When it's over someone new
will come to leave us tainted blue

When I fall down deep inside myself
and it seems there's no escape
I feel there's no way I'll go on
cause it's more than I can take
I see you there so innocent
all you want to do is help
I hang on to you once again
and you save me from myself

We're just tainted blue
all I think about is you
while you think of someone else
right now no one else will do
so I look to you for help
This will pass like these things do
I'll still be me, and you'll be you
When it's over someone new
will come to leave us tainted blue

Yeah, this will pass like these things do
I'll still be me, and you'll be you
When it's over someone new
will come to leave us tainted blue
