It's another lonely Saturday night In my car, with the radio on Don't know why I keep driving by Cause I know you're done gone I bet you're having a good time Out on the town, with your somebody new While I'm drivin' around Gettin' down Paintin' the town blue I stopped by to see a few of my old friends Tryin' to get you off my mind, some how And I was thinkin' this old heartache might just Get lost in the crowd Then somebody brought up all those memories And had to ask how I'm gettin' over you I'm just runnin' around Gettin' down Paintin' the town blue Everywhere I go Every way I turn I'm seeing shades of you But you won't let me go So I just keep on turnin' Bluer shades of blue Maybe I could let it drive me crazy But, it wouldn't mend this broke heart So, I'm gonna pull my self together And make the best of this fallin' apart So if you see me out having a good time And actin' like I forgot all about you I'm just runnin' around Gettin' down Paintin' the town blue Without you around I'm gettin' down Paintin' the town blue
