[Verse 1]
Up above me are the skies
Like the twinkle in your eyes
Blue must be the colour of the blues
[Verse 2]
In the mail, the letters came
But you can't pay for love the same
Blue must be the colour of the blues
[Bridge 1]
The bluebird singing in the trees
Seems to sympathize with me
'Cause he's not singing like he used to do
[Verse 3]
Pretty waters in the sea
Feel as cold as you left me
Blue must be the colour of the blues
[Bridge 2]
Blue days come and blue days go
The way I feel, nobody knows
Life is mighty empty without you
[Verse 4]
There's a blue note in each song
That I sing since you've been gone
Blue must be the colour of the blues
[Verse 4]
There's a blue note in each song
That I sing since you've been gone
Blue must be the colour of the blues
