When the world turns blue
Somewhere after you
I’ll just have to handle it
With all I know how to do
I’ll write a song about you
How love can’t live without you
How every place you touched me
Made me feel new

And when we are gone
The song will live on
Some stranger will hear and He’ll say,
“This is just how I feel.
Every line, every moment is true”
When the world turns blue
When the world turns blue

When the world turns blue
You will turn into
Rhythm, word, and melody
That show the power anew
And though the past may find you
With all I left behind you
I still will play the song
That I made for you

And when we are gone
The song will live on
Some stranger will hear and He’ll say,
“This is just how I feel.
Every line, every moment is true”
When the world turns blue
When the world turns blue
