My Coloring Book
John Kander, Fred Ebb
In case you fancy coloring books
And lots of people do
I've a new one for you
A most unusual coloring book
The kind you never see
Crayons ready, very well begin to color me
These are the eyes
That watched him as he walked away
Color them grey this is the heart
That thought he would always be true
Color it blue
These are the eyes
That held him and touched him
Then lost him somehow color them empty now
These are the beads I wore
Until she came between color them green
This is the room I sleep in
And walk in and weep in
And hide in that nobody sees
Color it lonely, please
This is the man the one I depended upon
Color him gone
