Lyrics:

Costello / Frisell

Deep dead blue that I invite
Bring it on, disguise of night
Turn the whole kaleidoscope
Deep dead blue

Deep dead blue that nightly shares
Most unlikely escapes
As the lights that frighten fade
Till the dawn drags into view
I'm lost in deep dead blue

Deep dead blue I'd rather stay
Far from the cool color day
Leave me in my monochrome
Till I find a finer hue
Beyond the deep dead blue
