Colour Of The Blues Lyrics - Elvis Costello

Up above me are the skies like the twinkle in your eyes 

Blue must be the colour of the blues 

In the mail, the 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 feel, nobody 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 

There's a blue note in each song that I sing since you've been gone 

Blue must be the colour of the blues
