This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”
I wasn't born to be alone that was a lesson I was shown
To know that love was just a lie
I ran away to think it over
But it's over and I try to take a stand on what is real
Someone has shown me how to feel
I'm like a shadow in the night
I'm like a river in an ocean
I'm a flame without a light
And now I'm cryin' ev'ry day
And I've been cryin' ev'ry day
And I been think' of your love
I keep turnin' I keep turnin'
I keep turnin' I keep turnin'
Well your love is a cathedral and I came down here to pray
And now I'm cryin' ev'ry day
Can there be any wonder why to be living under
love is a revelation only few can share
I could be a mountain strong but the pain about you
Long as I live without you
I would still be there
I wanna die, die away
Never love,never cry
And I been walkin' in the rain
And I been hangin' on a dream
All the faces and the places that our love has ever been
Now I'm cryin' ev'ry day
And I been cryin' ev'ry day
And I been thinkin' of your love
I keep turnin' , I keep turnin'
I keep turning', I keep turnin'
Well your love is a cathedral and I came down here to pray
And now I'm cryin' ev'ry day
Can there be any wonder why to be living under
love is a revelation only few can share
I could be a mountain strong but the pain about you
Long as I live without you I would still be there
I wanna die, die away
Never love, never cry
I wasn't born to be a fool but I'm a fool to be around
I'm a man without a country I'm a King without a crown
And then you're throwin' me away
Another world , another time
But if anyone belongs to anybody you were mine
And I'm cryin' ev'ry day
And I been cryin' ev'ry day
And I've been thinkin' of your love
I keep turnin' I keep turnin'
I keep turnin' I keep turning'
Well your love is a cathedral and I came down here to pray
And now I'm

Just listening for the 784,654th time....and it's just perfect in every way. Just incredible. The only reason it was remade was to scoop up a boatload of money from a more modern and accepting audience. But it is a completely different song than the other one that sounds slapped together in a few takes without a thought for the meaning.
This song captivates me still, after 50+ years. Takes me to the deep South and the poverty of some who lived thru truly hard times. And the powerful spirit of a poor young girl being abandoned to her future with only a red dress and her wits to keep her alive.
She not only stayed alive, she turned her hard beginnings around, became self sufficient, successful and someone with respect for herself. She didn't let the naysayers and judgers stop her. She's the one sitting in the drivers seat at the end.
So, not a song about a poor girl, but a song of hope and how you can rise up no matter how far down you started.
There is a huge difference between a singer who simply belts out a song that is on a page in front of them, and someone who can convey an entire experience with their voice. Telling not just a story with words, but taking you inside it and making you feel like you are there, with their interpretation.
