My Colouring Book
Fred Ebb, John Kander
If you admire colouring books
Lots of people do
I’m a new one for you
A most unusual colouring book
The kind you never see
Crayons ready, very well
Begin to color me
These are the eyes that watched her
As she walked away
Colour them gray
And this is the heart that thought
She would always be true
Ah, colour it blue
These are the arms that held her
And touched her then lost her, lost her somehow
Colour them empty now
This is the tie I wore
Until he came between
You can colour it green
This is the room I sleep in and walk in
And weep in and hide in that nobody sees
Colour it lonely, please
And this is the girl
That once I depended upon
You can colour her gone
Colour her, colour her, colour her gone
Colour her gone
