Blue

Why are my blue eyes so blue?

They are so blue because of you

They have cried a million tears

They have seen endless fears

They loved your every notion

That is why they are the color of the ocean

Why are my blue eyes so gray?

Because you took my love away

I thought I'd found my treasure at last

You were so close but did slip past

And so my soul is drained

This life I live is labored and pained

I wake daily with regret

For missing you? You bet.

I'm sorry for what I've done

I wish I were your one

One and only lover
