Lyrics Bobby Caldwell – Blue

Blue
That’s my color
Ever since the day she walked away and said we’re through
Not another night out on the town

And red
Red was the color
Right from the start before she broke my heart
And bittered the wine
I appreciate you checking in on me from time to time
But for now it’s best to leave me to be blue

I can’t spend an evening of pretending to my friends
That I’ll be fine, no need to worry…
One more truth I’ve had to bend
They can see through everything I say and at the end of the night

I’ll be blue
For my lover
For the letter that she left for me to find
I appreciate you checking in on me from time to time
Somehow I must try to start anew
So for now it’s best to leave me blue

Blue
That’s my color
And she left me only pieces of every broken word
Knowing I can’t rearrange events as they occurred
Somehow I must try to make it through
Leave me to embrace the color blue
No one knows that color like I do
