Shades Of Blue
By John Kaniecki
There are many shades of blue
And all I recall
Remind me of you
There are many shades of blue
Wide, thin, small and tall
But none of them are true
I see the sky
I cry
I see the ocean deep
I weep
There are many shades of blue
And all I recall
Remind me of you
And how you weren’t true
So what’s a poor boy to do?
There are many shades of blue
And I’d trade a kingdom or
two
For one of those days full of
charm
When I held you tight in my
arms
But the past has fled
And my heart is dead
It is no longer red
But alas
Entrenched in a blue
steadfast
There are many shades of blue
And I wish I never knew
Your love so tender and sweet
So in bitter defeat
I lay these words at your
feet
There are many shades of blue
And the poet cannot conceive
Or the man of faith believe
Or have a clue
Of the love one can receive
From somebody as wonderful as
you
