Singer equates his lost love to being on The Blue Side of Paradise
THE BLUE SIDE OF PARADISE
Rhett Davis

YOU CAME TO ME LIKE A MIDNIGHT SUN
BURNING THROUGH THE DARKNESS IN MY SOUL
I TRIED TO WALK BUT I COULD NOT RUN
YOU HELD ME UP THEN THREW ME DOWN 
YOU LOVED ME AND YOU NEEDED ME 
AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT
WHEN YOU MADE ME FEEL SO FREE
 DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WOULD COST     

CAUSE ON THE BLUE SIDE OF PARADISE   
THE COLORS HERE THEY DO NOT SHINE SO BRIGHT
THE FIRE THAT WAS BLAZING HOT IS COLD AND TURNED TO ICE
HERE ON THE BLUE SIDE OF PARADISE

I WAS FLYING FAST ON A SLOW SPEED STAR
DIDN'T KNOW YOUR LOVE WAS GONE UNTIL IT WAS              
YOU PATCHED ME UP BUT I CAME APART
CAUSE YOU LEFT SOMETHINGS UNDONE
YOU LOVED ME AND YOU NEEDED ME 
I THOUGHT THAT PART WAS TRUE 
BUT THERE WERE LINES I COULD'NT SEE
GUESS I CROSSED A FEW				
AND ON THE BLUE SIDE OF PARADISE   
THE COLORS HERE THEY DO NOT SHINE SO BRIGHT
THE FIRE THAT WAS BLAZING HOT IS COLD AND TURNED TO ICE
HERE ON THE BLUE SIDE OF PARADISE

SLIDING DOWN THIS UPHILL FIGHT, CAN’T SEEM TO MAKE THE GRADE
SO IT'S PROBABLY A BLESSING I CAN STAY

HERE ON THE BLUE SIDE OF PARADISE   
THE COLORS HERE DON'T SHINE BUT THEY'RE MINE
THE FIRE THAT WAS BURNING HOT IS COLD AND TURNED TO ICE
HERE ON THE BLUE SIDE OF PARADISE
