Lyrics, Cara Baca & English Translation
Night falls and I'm alone
Skin, yeah, chilled me to the bone
You turned and you ran, oh, yeah
Oh, slipped right from my hands
Yeah
Blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream, never change a thing
Doesn't bring you back
It's like blue on black
Blind, oh, but now I see
Truth, lies, and in between
Wrong can't be undone, oh no
Well, it slipped from the tip of your tongue
Yeah
Blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream, never change a thing
Doesn't bring you back
It's like blue on black
Blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove, it don't mean much
Blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove, it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice, a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream, never change a thing
Doesn't bring you back
It's like blue on black
Yeah, blue on black
Yeah, it's blue on black
Yeah, blue on black
