So Blue
Fantasia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm so blue, so blue, so blue, so blue
Crazy and gone over you, over you, over you, over yo-o-u, hey

If these walls could talk here's what they'll say
I haven't seen my man in about four days
He's been missing and lost since he found out
I done brought another man up in this house
But I swear it isn't my fault, no it's not
About a week ago I caught him, he ain't figured it out
And I can admit that two wrongs don't make it right
'Cause since it happened I ain't lying, I can't sleep at night

If I could take it back, baby I would take it back
'Cause see I want my man to stay
But then I see the facts and this is how I react
I wish I handled it another way

I'm so blue, so blue, so blue, so blue
Crazy and gone over you, over you, over you, over yo-o-u, hey
I'm so blue, so blue, so blue, so blue
Crazy and gone over you, over you, over you, over yo-o-u, hey

If I could take back time I would take it back
To the time when you made my heart go boom clap clap
But like I said all good things, they must end
And now we're no longer lovers, not even friends
And if I could I swear I would, I swear I would
Make it good, ah, coulda, shoulda, would
I knew I could, I knew I would, probably should, so

If I could take it back, baby I would take it back
'Cause see I want my man to stay
But then I see the facts and this is how I react
I wish I handled it another way

I'm so blue, so blue, so blue, so blue
Crazy and gone over you, over you, over you, over yo-o-u, hey
I'm so blue, so blue, so blue, so blue
Crazy and gone over you, over you, over you, over yo-o-u, hey

I am so, oh, I am so blue
I am so, oh, I am so blu-u-u-u-u-u-ue

I'm so blue, so blue, so blue, so blue
Crazy and gone over you, over you, over you, over yo-o-u, hey
I'm so blue, so blue, so blue, so blue
Crazy and gone over you, over you, over you, over yo-o-u, hey

See a lot of times, when things happen, you react in the moment.
You're not thinking about anything but you know,
Trying to get that person back or make that person hurt like you hurt.




When you have time to sit back and think about it,
It's too late, the damage is already done.
