Nothing to do but lying in blue
Finding faces in the clouds
A tune on a breeze just floats with ease
Swanning farther from the crowd
The sun’s shining bright
Everything’s all right
I’ve got nothing to do but lying in blue

I look to the sky and wonder why
Watch the time go flying by
I live in the past but it never lasts
Just reflections in my eyes
Traces of me that lead me to you
I’ve got nothing to do but lying in blue

It’s an indolent day and I’m okay
Just want to hang around
No need to walk and I won’t run
Lay my tired body down
It’s a do nothing day and it’s nothing new
I’ve got nothing to do but lying in blue

Nothing to do but liying in blue
Chasing dreams under the sun
Drifting alone so far from home
Living deep within the one
All by myself without you
I’ve got nothing to do but lying in blue
