Pretty girl dressed in black and blue Alone in the night As the moon rises over the hills Painting the sky She waits in solitude A rose in her hand Her eyes are black as coal But look blue as the night
They look blue as the night
People walk by, some look at her The pain in her eyes Scares them, they walk away With no reason why She feels the piercing tears Tells herself not to cry With a tempest on her face She is blue as the night
She is blue as the night Blue as a rainy sky Blue as the notes on my guitar
