Lyrics

Lately I've been thinking of the time we spent together
Thinking of the photographs, the poetry, the weather
And you
Oh the colour is blue

Lately I've been thinking of the quality of fashion
Thinking of the beauty and the power and the passion
And you
Oh the colour is blue

Oh you lift me up your loving sets my heart on fire
You lift me up
I get a little bit shyer

And the colour is blue
I love you
Do you do
Oh the colour is blue

Lately I've been thinking of a quiet time to wander
Thinking of the future and a quiet time to ponder
And you
Oh the colour is blue

Oh you lift me up your loving sets my heart on fire
You lift me up
I get a little bit shyer

And the colour is blue
I love you
Do you do
Oh the colour is blue

Oh the colour is blue x 3
