  • How come you don't wanna see me
    How come you've gone and left me alone
    How come you took a slow boat to China
    What can I do if I can't get through to you
    Baby blue on blue

    I want you more
    Than I ever wanted
    Than I ever needed
    Anyone I ever knew

    I love you [I love you] more than ever
    Thought that I'd never feel the way that I do

    How long you gonna leave me here standing
    How long til you gonna make up your mind
    How long is your balloon ride to nowhere
    And what can I do if I can't be there with you
    Baby blue on blue

    I want you more
    Than I ever wanted
    Than I ever needed
    Anyone I ever knew

    I love you more than ever
    Thought that I'd never feel the way that I do

    Coming under fire
    We're coming under fire
    I'm coming under fire
    I'm coming under fire

    I'm coming under fire
    I'm coming under fire
    I'm coming under fire
    I'm coming under fire

  • John Donne from AustraliaThe title phrase "Blue on Blue" is a military term referring to a friendly fire incident. This is reflected in the lyrics at the end- "coming under fire", as in being attacked (with rifles or machine guns ect).
    The author appears to feel he is being attacked by an ally or friend.
