Down in Kansas, where the fields stretch wide,
We shared our dreams beneath that big ol’ sky.
You were my sunshine, my sweet summer rain,
But now I’m lost in this heartache and pain.
(Pre-Chorus)
You took your suitcase and my heart that day,
Left me standing here, watchin’ you fade away.
Now every whisper of the wind feels so cruel,
Reminds me of the love that left me in the blue.
(Chorus)
Oh, you left me in the blue, like the twilight starts to fall,
With a heart full of memories, now I can’t feel at all.
In this small-town diner where we used to laugh and sing,
Now I’m just a ghost, missin’ everything.
You left me in the blue, girl, what did I do?
(Verse 2)
We carved our names in that old sycamore,
Swore we’d be forever, but you walked out the door.
The stars used to shine for just me and you,
Now they’re cold and distant, like the love that we knew.
(Pre-Chorus)
I drive past the places where we used to roam,
Every corner of this town feels like I’m still alone.
With every sunset painting the sky so true,
I’m reminded of the love that left me in the blue.
(Chorus)
Oh, you left me in the blue, like the twilight starts to fall,
With a heart full of memories, now I can’t feel at all.
In this small-town diner where we used to laugh and sing,
Now I’m just a ghost, missin’ everything.
You left me in the blue, girl, what did I do?
(Bridge)
Now the nights stretch long, and the days feel the same,
Every song on the radio still calls out your name.
I’m searchin’ for answers in the stars above,
But all I find is heartache, and the remnants of our love.
(Chorus)
Oh, you left me in the blue, like the twilight starts to fall,
With a heart full of memories, now I can’t feel at all.
In this small-town diner where we used to laugh and sing,
Now I’m just a ghost, missin’ everything.
You left me in the blue, girl, what did I do?
(Outro)
So here’s to the love that slipped right through my hands,
In this Kansas heartache, I’m just a broken man.
With every sunset fading, I’ll still be waiting too,
For the day you come back and lift me from the blue.
