Refugees of the Blues by Erin Saoirse Adair Lyrics

When you're down
The only color is blue
Well, I've got news, red, yellow and green
Are all good colors too

So if you're lonely and feeling sad
Don't look at the problems that hurt
Just look at all you have

The cup is never half empty
It's always filled to the brim
And connoisseur de la vie babe
You won't lose time, only win
Refugees of the blues, we can take them all in
Refugees of the blues, we can take them all in

I've searched fjords
And far places
Through lands and pastimes
It's all yours if you can face it
This backyard piece of mind
This backyard piece of mind
This backyard piece of mind
Well they tried to sell me a temple
Elixirs and medicine vials
Well, my life was up for rental
This was in me the whole while
This was in me the whole while
This was in me the whole while

The cup is never half empty
It's always filled to the brim
And connoisseur de la vie babe
You won't lose time, only win
Refugees of the blues, we can take them all in
Refugees of the blues, we can take them all in

Well they told me not to run
Just to stay where I stand
Well, I want to move forwards and backwards
Just move through this land
So I've been to the land of my blood
And I've been to the land of my bones
I know I'm not very old, I know
I know this heart is my home
I know this heart is my home

The cup is never half empty
It's always filled to the brim
And connoisseur de la vie babe
You won't lose time, only win
Refugees of the blues, we can take them all in
Refugees of the blues, we can take them all in
