Lyrics Blue Rodeo – Rose–Coloured Glasses

She sees the world through rose-coloured glasses
Painted skies and graceful romances
I see a world that’s tired and scared
Of living on the edge too long

She takes my hand and leads me to nowhere town
No matter where I stand it’s always neutral ground
And in the cool of the evening blue
I feel so tired and alone
Where does she get off telling me
That love could save us all
Save us all

And it’s day after day
I keep hanging around can you tell me why
Night after night I know I should leave
But there’s something in those eyes
That keeps me hanging on I’m hypnotised
It breaks my heart and I don’t know why
Tell me why tell me why

She sees the world through rose-coloured glasses
Painted skies and graceful romances
See a world that’s tired and scared
Of living on the edge too long
Where does she get off telling me
That love could save us all

And it’s day after day
I keep hanging around can you tell me why
Night after night yeah I know I should leave

Day after day after day after day
And I don’t know
Day after day after day after day
And I don’t know why
