Elvis Costello - Colour of The Blues lyrics

Up above me are the skies

Like the twinkle in your eyes

Blue must be the colour of the blues

In the mailthe letters came

But you can't pay for love the same

Blue must be the colour of the blues

The bluebird singin' in the trees

Seems to sympathize with me

'cause he's not singin' like he used to do

Pretty waters in the sea

Feel as cold as you left me

Blue must be the colour of the blues

Blue days come and blue days go

The way I feelnobody knows

Life is finally empty without you

There's a blue note in each song

That I sing since you've been gone

Blue must be the colour of the blues
