"Paint The Town Blue" lyrics

Feels like I've been barely holding on
Nothing left for me to do
Why should I be lonely all alone
I'm gonna paint the town blue

Maybe nothing's ever what it seems
Like it was when we were kids
I was thinking that we shared those dreams
Ah, but I guess you never did

Once upon a long ago
I could always count on you
Time for me to stand up on my own
Lay these troubles down
Go out and paint the town
Blue

When the morning sun shines on this place
It can make you feel brand new
But the nights can still be hard to face
When you're feeling like a fool

Once upon a long ago
I could always count on you
Now I guess I've gotta let that go
Lay these troubles down
Go out and paint the town
Blue
