Color Of The Blues Red Sovine

Up above me were the skies
Like the twinkle in your eyes
These things are the colors of the blues

In the mail your letter came
The ink and paper looked th same
Blue must be the color
Of the blues

Bluebird sitting in the tree
Seems to sympathize with me
For he's not singing like he used to

The pretty waters in the sea
Feel as cold as you left me
Yes blue must be the color
Of the blues

There's a rainbow overhead
With more blue than gold and red
Blue must be the color
Angels choose
A blue dress you proudly wore
When you left me to return no more
Blue must be the color
Of the blues
