Cornflower Blue Lyrics - Singles - Eric Bogle

"Cornflower Blue" 

-Eric Bogle 

Cornflower blue, bloomin' in the mornin' sun 

Tiny flowers that grew, from when our love had just begun 

Long ago we planted, each dry and dusty row 

how long has it taken, for the seeds of love to grow? 

Cornflower blue... 

Cornflower blue, like the faded shirt you wore 

Standing in the shadows, when I opened up the door 

The smile in your eyes, when you said hello 

Held me so tenderly, and you would not let me go 

Cornflower blue... 

Cornflower blue, deeper than the evenin' sky 

peaceful as a river, bluer than goodbye 

Blue like a diamond, when the light shines true 

If love came in colors, then I'd choose this one for you 

Cornflower blue... 

Cornflower blue...
