I'm lying in the dark listening to the rain

Reminds of you and makes me me sad all over again

Your measured swoons and sighs

Your hand me down whispered alibis



And it's easy to forgive but it's so hard, so hard to forget

And it's easy to see how deceit, deceit becomes regret

I can see now we're apart

How your mind played tricks on my heart



I never knew that you were untrue

There's so many shades of green

And i never believed that you would ever deceive

There's so many shades of green, so many shades of green



So sleep with your snakes and enjoy their viper's kiss

I want you know there's nothing about that i miss

I don't wish you any pain

But i don't ever want to see you again



So just shut your mouth

I've heard it all before

Shut it, just shut it

I don't wanna hear any more



I never knew that you were untrue

There's so many shades of green

And i never believed that you would ever deceive

There's so many shades of green

And you never knew that i was also untrue

There's so many shades of green

And you never believed that i could ever deceive

There's so many shades

So many shades of green
