Color Of The Blues (Album Version) - Patty Loveless

Up above me are the skies

Like a twinkle in your eyes

These things are the color of the blues

In the mail your letter came

Pink and paper looked the same

Blue must be the color of the blues

Blue birds singing in the trees

Seems to sympathize with me

For he's not singing like he use to do

The pretty water in the sea

Still as cold as when you left me

Yes blue must be the color of the blues

There's a rainbow over head

With more blue than gold and red

Blue must be the color angels choose

And the blue look that you 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 know's

Life is pretty empty without you

There's a blue note in each song

That I sing since you are gone

Blue must be the color of the blues

Yes blue must be the cloor of the blues
