Loretta Lynn Lyrics

"Color Of The Blues" lyrics


(Lawton Williams - George Jones)

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 singin' in the trees
Seems to sympathize with me
But he ain't singin' like he used to do
The pearly waters in the sea
Are as cold as you left me
Blue must be the color of the blues.

--- Instrumental ---

There's a rainbow overhead
With more blue than gold and red
Blue must be the color angels choose
A blue suit you proudly wore
When you left to return no more
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 sang since you've been gone
Blue must be the color of the blues...
