Man In Blue Lyrics

If you know my name
Why are you calling out
To an old love
To an old love

When you need someone
Why do you always run
To your Lord up above
To your Lord up above

I just want to understand you
I don't need to be your man in blue

And your days all the same
Prayers like drops of rain
As you wait for the flood
To cleanse everyone

Can you hear my voice
In high lonesome rejoice
Sing a song for you
In and out of tune

I just want to understand you
I don't need to be your man in blue

I just want you to see yourself the way I do
I don't need to be your man in blue
No, I don't need to be your man, man in blue

What is the Meaning of Man In Blue?

Here’s a lyrical cocktail for your ears, blending heartache and heavenly confusion. In this indie gem, our protagonist is scratching his head, baffled by why his love runs to an old flame or the divine whenever she needs reassurance. He's not attempting to step in as her knight in shining armor—just a dude who wants her to see herself through his starry-eyed glasses. His plea is clear: he’s singing his heart out, albeit sometimes off-key, hoping she stops waiting for divine intervention to fix everything. So, darling, pay attention—your earthly admirer is right here. #LoveConfusion #IndieDespair #SeeYourself
