Shades of Blue

There was a little boy
With bright blue eyes
Who sat on a step
And silently cried.

There was no one to love him
No one to care
No one to stroke his pretty blonde hair.

Many years passed
And the little boy grew
Until he met someone
With eyes of sapphire blue.

"Where were you
When I sat on my step
And cried and cried?"
Said the boy with the bright blue eyes.

"I lived in your heart
But I heard your cries
And saw the sadness
In your beautiful eyes.

So together for ever
In shades of blue.
They traveled this world
In a love strong and true.
