Love Is Blue
English words by: Bryan Blackburn;
music by: Andre Popp;
French words by: Pierre Cour.

Blue, blue, my world is blue,
Blue is my world now I am without you.
Grey, grey, my life is grey,
Cold is my heart since you went away.
Red, red, my eyes are red,
Crying for you alone in my bed.
Green, green, my jealous heart,
I doubted you and now we are apart.

When we met, how the bright sun shone,
Then love died, now the rainbow is gone.

Black, black, the nights I have known,
Longing for you so lost and alone.

Gone, gone, the love we knew,
Blue is my world now I am without you
