BLUE IS THE BEST I CAN DO

I USED TO BE THE LIFE OF THE PARTY,
NOW I'M SOMEBODY I DON'T EVEN KNOW.
MY FRIENDS DON'T EVER CALL ME TO GET CRAZY,
THEY KNOW THAT WHEN THEY DO,
I DON'T EVER GO.

CAUSE I'M JUST WORKIN' MY WAY BACK TO HAPPY,
TRYIN' TO GET OVER LOOSIN' YOU.
SOMEDAY SOON I'LL PAINT THIS OLD TOWN RED AGAIN.
BUT RIGHT NOW BLUE IS THE BEST I CAN DO.

I FOUND MY LITTLE BOOK OF FAVORITE NUMBERS,
EVEN FOUND THE STRENGTH TO CALL ONE ON THE PHONE.
BUT I GUESS SHE'S STILL WAITING ON THAT BAR STOOL.
CAUSE' I'M STILL WATCHIN' T.V.
AND EATIN' POPCORN HERE AT HOME.

CAUSE I'M JUST WORKIN' MY WAY BACK TO HAPPY,
TRYIN' TO GET OVER LOOSIN' YOU.
SOMEDAY SOON I'LL PAINT THIS OLD TOWN RED AGAIN.
BUT RIGHT NOW BLUE IS THE BEST I CAN DO.
  
AND UNTIL THE HEARTACHE HEALS,
BLUE'S THE ONLY WAY I'LL FEEL.
YEAH, BLUE IS THE BEST I CAN DO.
