2. Lyrics
She looked so much like a lady But she was so much like a child 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 greensand
the sky turned baby blue 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 whys, here's to you and whoever Holds my baby blue tonight She
brought color to my life That my eyes have never touched When she taught me
how to care I've never cared so much try not to think of her But I fall asleep
and do And go away where the grass turns greensand the sky is baby blue
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 whys, here's to you
and whoever Holds my baby blue tonight 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 whys, here's to you and whoever Holds my baby blue
tonight
