Blue is just the color of the sea 'Til my lover left me Blue is just a bluebird in a tree 'Til he said forget me Blue always made me think of summer Cloudless summer skies so fresh and warm But now the blue I see is more like water When the skies blue clouds about to storm Blue is just the color of his eyes 'Til he said goodbye love Blue is just written for first prize 'Til he said don't cry love And blues were only taught soul less Fashioned for impassive afternoons But now I know to well I know To well I know the meaning of the blues Blue is just the color of his eyes
