Am I blue?
Am I blue?
Ain’t these tears in my eyes telling you?
Almost blue
Almost doing things we used to do
There’s a girl here and she’s almost you
Blue, don’t forget the word I warned you,
Oh Blue, don’t let them push you, don’t let them destroy you,
Meanwhile, I’m searching with my brain blown eyes,
See the world through my dirty lonely mixed up mind.
How I love my coat of many colours
It was red and yellow and green and brown
And scarlet and black and ochre and peach
And ruby and olive and violet and fawn
And lilac and gold and chocolate and mauve
And cream and crimson and silver and rose
And azure and lemon and russet and grey
And purple and white and pink and orange
And red and yellow and green and brown and
Scarlet and black and ochre and peach
And ruby and olive and violet and fawn
And lilac and gold and chocolate and mauve
And cream and crimson and silver and rose
And azure and lemon and russet and grey
And purple and white and pink and orange
And blue
Why are there so many songs about rainbows
And what’s on the other side?
There’s a kiss at the end of the rainbow
More precious than a pot of gold.
‘Twas a sumptuous gift
To bequeath to a child.
Oh the lure of that song
Kept her feet funnin’ wild.
For you never grow old
And you never stand still,
With whippoorwills singin’
Beyond the next hill.
Look, look
Look to the rainbow.
Follow it over the hill
And the stream.
Look, look
Look to the rainbow.
Follow the fellow
Who follows a dream
Wild thing
You make my heart sing.
I could go on singing till the cows come home
And the rooster starts to crow, crow, crow
When I see your eyes, I go all out
I must vocalize till you shout, “Enough already”
Of thee I sing, baby-
Summer, autumn, winter, spring, baby.
You’re my silver lining,
You’re my sky of blue;
There’s a love light shining
All because of you.
Of thee I sing baby-
You have got that certain thing, baby!
Shining star and inspiration,
Worthy of a mighty nation-
Of thee I sing!
Sing your songs of hope and fear
Sing the song that sent you here
Sing your heart out
Sing, sing, sing your heart out
Sing, sing your heart out
sing, sing, sing, everybody start to sing like dee dee dee, bah bah bah dah
Now you’re singin with a swing
sing sing sing everybody start to sing like dee dee dee, bah bah bah dah
Now you’re singin like everything.
Now it’s the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
It’s the same, same old song
But with a different meaning (Since you been gone)
And it breaks me up to hear it
Friday night, it was late, I was walking you home
We got down to the gate and I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right
Now as the years roll on
Each time we hear our favorite song
The memories come along
Older times we’re missing
Spending the hours reminiscing
When I was young I’d listen to the radio
Waitin’ for my favorite songs
Then they played I’d sing along, it made me smile
Those were such happy times and not so long ago
How I wondered where they’d gone
But they’re back again just like a long lost friend
All the songs I loved so well
Pilot of the airwaves,
Here is my request.
You don’t have to play it.
But I hope you’ll do your best.
I’ve been listening to your show on the radio
And you seem like a friend to me.
Please, Mr., please, don’t play B-17
It was our song, it was his song, but it’s over
Please, Mr., please, if you know what I mean
I don’t ever wanna hear that song again
My Captain Von Ondine, here’s your next patrol
A flight of English bombers across the canal
After twelve, they’ll all be here
I think you know the job
nm.
War, huh, yeah.
What is it good for.
Absolutely nothing.
Uh-huh.
