My Coloring Book
In case
You fancy coloring books
And lots of people do
I've a new one for you
A most unusual coloring book
The kind you'd never see
Crayons ready, very well
Begin to color me
These are the eyes
That watched him
As he walked away
Color them gray
This is the heart
That thought he would always
Be true
Color it blue
These are the arms
That held him
And touched him
Then lost him somehow
Color them empty now
These are the beads
I wore until
She came between
If you like
Color them green
This is the room
I sleep in
And walk in
And weep in
And hide in
That nobody ever sees
Color it lonely, please
This is the man
The one
The one I depended upon
You must color him gone
He's gone, color him gone
You fancy coloring books
And lots of people do
I've a new one for you
A most unusual coloring book
The kind you'd never see
Crayons ready, very well
Begin to color me
These are the eyes
That watched him
As he walked away
Color them gray
This is the heart
That thought he would always
Be true
Color it blue
These are the arms
That held him
And touched him
Then lost him somehow
Color them empty now
These are the beads
I wore until
She came between
If you like
Color them green
This is the room
I sleep in
And walk in
And weep in
And hide in
That nobody ever sees
Color it lonely, please
This is the man
The one
The one I depended upon
You must color him gone
He's gone, color him gone
