Am I the shade or a shadow? Well, I can't really tell And I still cannot remember if your eyes were blue or green or brown I wish I'd paid attention to every word that you'd ever said But you always spoke in a whisper, and I wasn't good at listening Well, I can't remember if your eyes were blue or green or red Well, you always spoke in a whisper, I ain't so good at listening Dum-dum, da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-da-da-da, dum, dum, da-da-dum-dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-dum, da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-da-da-da, dum, dum, da-da-dum-dum, da-da-dum, ooh Harsh words from my mother, but it turned out they were nice She said, If you continue down this path, you're not the only one who dies A few weeks later, I was told that you were gone Well, I still just can't remember if your eyes were green or brown or blonde Dum-dum, da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-da-da-da, dum, dum, da-da-dum-dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-dum, da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-da-da-da, dum, dum, da-da-dum-dum, da-da-dum, ooh I wish I'd paid attention to every word that you ever said But you spoke in a whisper and I'm not in your head Well, I can't remember if your eyes were bleen or glue or red But you always spoke in a whisper and I ain't so good at listening Dum-dum, da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-da-da-da, dum, dum, da-da-dum-dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-dum, da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-da-da-da, dum, dum, da-da-dum-dum, da-da-dum, ooh A few days later, they found you frozen in your car Well, the last time you were seen leaving the YMCA from the showers Am I the shade or a shadow? Well, I can't really tell And I still just can't remember if your eyes were even there at all Dum-dum, da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-da-da-da, dum, dum, da-da-dum-dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-dum, da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum, da-da-dum, ooh Dum-da-da-da, dum, dum, da-da-dum-dum, da-da-dum, ooh Yeah, things were shaky, as I know they often are But after seven years together, all I remember is the back of the police car Well, things get crazy shaky sometimes, way too fucked up If I'd been in my right mind, I would've called the whole thing off My heart pumped faster than could possibly be right I read a magazine the day before, you only get so many thumps in your whole life Yeah, I can't remember if your eyes were green or brown or red 'Cause you always spoke in a whisper and I ain't so good at listenin' Yeah, you always spoke in a whisper, and I ain't so good at listenin'
