|
Up above me are the skies like the twinkle in your eyes |
|
These things are the colors of the blues |
|
In the mail, your letter came the ink and paper looked the same |
|
Blue must be the color of the blues |
|
Bluebird's singing in the trees seems to sympathize with me |
|
But he's not singing like he used to do |
|
The pretty waters in the sea feel as cold as you left me |
|
Yes, blue must be the color of the blues |
|
There's a rainbow overhead with more blue than gold and red |
|
Blue must be the color angels choose |
|
A blue dress you proudly wore when you left to return no more |
|
Yes, blue must be the color of the blues |
|
Blue days come and blue days go, how I feel nobody knows |
|
Life is mighty empty without you |
|
There's a blue note in each song that I sing since you are gone |
|
Yes, blue must be the color of the blues |
