Shades Of Cool Lyrics

My baby lives in shades of blue
Blue eyes and jazz and attitude
He lives in California too
He drives a Chevy Malibu

And when he calls
He calls for me, not for you
He lives for love, he loves his drugs
He loves his baby too

But I can't fix him, can't make him better
And I can't do nothing about his strange weather

But you are invincible
I can't break through your world
'Cause you live in Shades Of Cool
Your heart is unbreakable

My baby lives in shades of cool
Blue heart and hands and aptitude
He lives for love, for women, too
I'm one of many, one is blue

And when he calls
He calls for me, not for you
He prays for love, he prays for peace
And maybe someone new

But I can't help him, can't make him better
And I can't do nothing about his strange weather

'Cause you are invincible
I can't break through your world
'Cause you live in shades of cool
Your heart is unbreakable

You are invincible
I can't break through your world
'Cause you live in shades of cool
Your heart is unbreakable

Shades Of Cool

The second single from Ultraviolence, Del Rey wrote the atmospheric ballad with Rick Nowels. The San Francisco-born songwriter previously worked with Del Rey on her hit songs "Summertime Sadness" and "Young And Beautiful."

Del Rey told The Sun: "Shades Of Call is inspired by a person I met and just living here and being a real California baby."

"He made a strong visual impact on me," she added.

The video was filmed in Los Angeles in May 2014 and pairs Del Rey with Hollywood tattoo artist Mark Mahoney. He previously appeared in the clip for "West Coast" during the car scenes.
