Blue
(Mick Jagger - lyrics, music / Matt Clifford - music)
Sometime I weep, but weepin's not my game
Sometime I cry, but I'm laughin' all the same
Sometime I'm blue, but blue is not my color
Sometime I'm green, green like any other - lover
And I never know, where to draw the line
And I never see, the dangers
And I never know, where the boundary lies
But you, you, you
Sometime I'm bitter, I taste so bad inside
Sometime I worry, that I'm gonna lose my tiny mind
Sometime I'm blue, but blue is not my favorite color
Sometime I'm red, and I see great big balls of fire
And I never know, where to draw the line
And I never see, the dangers
And I never know, what about the lies
But you, you, you
It's a long, long, long way
Mmmmm, yes it is
It's a long way down
It's a long, long, long way
It's a long way to fall
And I never know, where to draw the line
And I never know, where the darkness lies
But you, you, you
Yeah
It's a long, long, long way
It's a long way down
It's a long, long, long way
It's a long way to fall
It's long, long way to crawl up to the mountain
It's a long way down
It's a long, long, long way
It's a long way down
Blue is not my color
It's not my color
It's not my color

If Things Could Be Different
(Mick Jagger - music, lyrics)
If things had been differents
If only you'd give one more twist of the key
If things would be different
A change in the numbers
If only that message could just be retrieved
If things would be different
If life could be permanent
You'd be a goddess carved on a frieze
If things could be different
You would be sharing your whole life with me
I saw it all I saw it from afar
I saw it all I saw it in the stars
I saw it all I saw it much too late
Coincidence and fate
If things had been different
If only your finger had not pushed delete
I would not be walking down
Down this lonely street
'Cause if things had been different
If only my whole life could be just re-dreamed
'Cause I was born way too soon
Born on the other side of the seas
And if things had been different
We'd spend the fourth of july on the beach
And if things had been different
All of your children would look just like me
I saw it all I saw it from afar
I saw it all I saw it from the stars
I saw it all I saw it much too late
I saw it all the fingerprints of fate
la, la, la...
I saw it all I saw it much too late
I saw it all - coincidence and fate
