“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Why do you wanna know everything
Why do you need a plan in your mind
Why do you smile if you don't want to
Why do you act if this is all true
How can you keep your wish inside you
How can I just forget about you
When I could never lie to you
When I could never hide it from you
Even if I'd only give you silence
You would know
What's taking place in my mind
But your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and don't see it
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Why do we end up being so lonely?
Now where have your eyes gone if nothing scares you
Why is this all just never enough
To make you happy
And stop your thinking
'Cause your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and you don't see it
I was walking when I saw a bird in the sky
And I followed its flight with my eyes
I felt like I could take myself up there
And it just made me smile inside
And it just made me fall in love
With everything, everything, everything
Your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and don't see it
Your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
It is shaking and you jump on it
But your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
Has got the fever, has got the fever
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Why do you wanna know everything
Why do you need a plan in your mind
Why do you smile if you don't want to
Why do you act if this is all true
How can you keep your wish inside you
How can I just forget about you
When I could never lie to you
When I could never hide it from you
Even if I'd only give you silence
You would know
What's taking place in my mind
But your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and don't see it
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Why do we end up being so lonely?
Now where have your eyes gone if nothing scares you
Why is this all just never enough
To make you happy
And stop your thinking
'Cause your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and you don't see it
I was walking when I saw a bird in the sky
And I followed its flight with my eyes
I felt like I could take myself up there
And it just made me smile inside
And it just made me fall in love
With everything, everything, everything
Your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and don't see it
Your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
It is shaking and you jump on it
But your world has got the fever
You're killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
Has got the fever, has got the fever
