True Blue
It’s my favorite color and I reckon it’s true
It goes very well with all I’ve been through
For I have embraced the bluest of days
Brought upon myself by the darkest of ways
They say that my eyes are as blue as the sky
Especially when their tired from the tears that I cry
When I first glanced at Lake Tahoe for heavens sake
I thought, “Nothing on Earth is as blue as this Lake”
Blue as the sky or so it would seem
I found sobriety and answered a dream
I remember I cried the day that I heard the news
No longer would Stevie Ray be playing the blues
Blue is a color but know it’s also an emotion
When I was in Hawaii it was the color of the Ocean
See, blue is more than a color it’s part of our soul
For folks at the fair it’s their number one goal
Sweetheart even this love that I hold for you
Can best be described by the words “True Blue”.
Inspired by the COLOR contest and of
course it was penned for my wife.
