Sits alone in her driveway
Counts the lights downtown in the city
Blue, white, purple, green and red
No colors out there it’s just all in her head
And she’s feeling lonely again
Can’t seem to find a friend
She ain’t broke but she’s bent
This trip has finally come to an end
Black and white she fades to gray
Nobody here to give a damn anyway
The city lights fade in the distance
Hopes and dreams shot down in an instant
Sits alone on the hood of her car
Going somewhere but it won’t be far
Chasing down dreams that just aren’t there
She’s alone and nobody cares
‘Cause she’s a stranger in this town
Nobody she knows around
All she can hear is the sound
Of the cars going up and down the road that she lives on
Black and white she fades to gray
Nobody here to give a damn anyway
The city lights fade in the distance
Hopes and dreams shot down in an instant
Thirty-five and she’s still all alone
Talks to her sister in Memphis on the phone
Speak of Elvis Rock ‘n’ Roll and the Blues
Why couldn’t she walk in those blue suede shoes
Black and white she fades to gray
Nobody here to give a damn anyway
The city lights fade in the distance
Hopes and dreams shot down in an instant
Black and white she fades to gray
Nobody here to give a damn anyway
The city lights fade in the distance
Hopes and dreams shot down in an instant – down in an instant
