Well the suns done gone don’t hand me no light The moon and the man will be rollin’ all night Scorpios up a-leading ol’ dan to pasture And the hours behind are all ways to few The miles between can’t begin to undo The feeling you will never see another like her Damn the lonesome ways and the young and foolish days And the kid who made the man who'd leave you With the sink of the ship, i’m going to dip into that hue Till i color me like i colored you The color of a lonely heart, and the color of a lonely heart is blue... The color of a lonely heart is blue The color of a lonely heart is blue The color of a lonely heart is blue Solo Stars go off like flash pot dots that spark under candle power and stop. Lift up your light ‘cuz you'll never see a night that’s blacker And the weight of it all gets heavier still Time as it crawls a little slower until Scorpios up a leading ol’ dan to cancer Damn the lonesome waaays and the young and foolish days And the kid who made the man who'd leave you With the sink of the ship, i’m going to dip into that hue Till i color me like i colored you The color of a lonely heart, and the color of a lonely heart is blue... The color of a lonely heart is blue The color of a lonely heart is blue The color of a lonely heart is blue Outro ...and fade
