She looked so much like a lady

But she was so much like a child

A devil when she held me close

An angel when she smiled

She always held it deep inside

But somehow I always knew

She'd go away when the grass turned green

And the sky turned baby blue



(Chorus)

Baby blue was the color of her eyes

Baby blue like the Colorado skies

Like a breath of spring she came and left

And I still don't know why so

Here's to you and whoever holds my Baby Blue tonight



She brought colors to my life

That my eyes had never touched

And when she taught me how to care

I never cared so much

I try not to think of her but I fall asleep and do

And drift off where the grass is green

And the sky is baby blue



(Repeat Chorus Til End
