Perfect Blue Lyrics

Should you awake dear from your beauty sleep
To find your room swimming in blue and green
Should you awake to feel like you'd never slept
And feel so very old well don't you feel alone
I'm kind of blue blue for you again
I guess I'm a fool at least I'm not innocent
But what to do whatever I touch turns blue
And should you find yourself lost but in no need of sympathy
Calm down to the beach and watch the waves come in
I dream the ocean was in my house
I feel the surf against my skin
But I just can't keep the waves from dragging me down
But when you say
Ooh baby you're my best friend
Then I lose I lose my common sense
I'm kind of blue it's the truth
Should you awake dear from your beauty sleep
To find your room swimming in blue and green
Should you awake to feel like you'd never slept
And feel so very old
Well don't you feel alone
I`m kind of blue blue for you again
I guess I'm a fool at least i`m not innocent
But what to do whatever I touch turns blue
Blue for you again
I guess I'm a fool at least I'm not innocent
I may be blue but don't you let me make you blue
Too

Cover art for Perfect Blue lyrics by Lloyd Cole

Great tune from Lloyd, the best on Easy Pieces. This strikes me as being about a lad who has been dumped due to some indiscretion (infidelity, bad behaviour?) and pines for her to return. Conversely he also knows that not only is she unlikely to come back, he's aware of his knack for screwing up and that he probably doesn't deserve her anyway - don't let me make you blue too. I wonder how autobiographical it is - could well be a personal tale.
