Blue is a color, vast as the sea Bright as the sky above Deep as the sapphire in someones eyes In the throes of passionate love Aquamarine splashes tropical isles Cobalt's collection of glass Powder blue booties, touch tiny feet Torquoise, of bluish-green grass Navy-blue fashion, a mariner's delight Crisp as a uniform's strut Royal-blue color, aristocrat's bleed When V. I. P. veins have been cut Baby blue cars, with white leather seats Golden treasures, we hold from the past Sky-blue sky-writers, advertise goods As long as the smoke patterns last Faded blue-jeans of comfort and ease a trademark of carefree bright days Worn by the masses, tight on their asses or baggy society's craze With all the positive aspects of blue As listed above, and there's more It's hard to imagine, "Crying the blues" An expression where hearts and tears pour Depression and sadness depicted as "blues" Strummed to a pitiful woe Singing the blues with fervent crescendo When feelings are sorrowful low Somebody done - somebody wrong And so, they're crying the blues Their tears might fill an ocean or sea The color of beautiful hues. ~ |
