Why do you look so blue?

Verse 2
Then the only man you ever loved, he thought was going to marry you, died in a car 
accident when he was only twenty-two. Then you just decided love wasn't for you. 
And every year since then has proved it to be true.

Chorus
Now your just a shell of your former youth. That stranger in the mirror, oh, 
that's you. Why do you look so blue?
