HARRY CONNICK, JR. - Buried In Blue lyrics

rate me

The sun sets red with rage<br>White clouds float by<br>Like high cotton<br>Blank as an empty page<br>Blue is a color buried<br>Not forgotten<br><br>Sweet as mother's milk<br>And clear as the wind<br>Wrap the dead in a pleat of silk<br>Blue is the color to be buried in<br><br>When you left<br>Leaving nothing behind<br>There's no one to blame<br>No criminal, no crime<br>You can report a missing person<br>But not a stolen heart<br>And I'm missing a person<br>To whom stealing was an art<br><br>The painting's complete<br>The brush strokes dry<br>I hear a band playing<br>A bent note or two<br>I guess someone died<br>And just wants to be<br>Buried in blue
