THE COLOUR OF LOVE
(words by M. Neubauer, music by A. Lukas)
You asked me did I know the colour of love
And I said blue without thinking
Cause your laughter splashes over me
in blue waves of delight -
a lazy blue dress, sleepy blue eyes
and a heavy blue raincoat
You asked me did I know the colour of love
And I said white without thinking
Cause white is your innocence upon me
in white splashes of fear –
a white disaster, eager white skin
and a silly white banner
My heart beats backwards when you cross my way
But no need for trumpets
I don´t want you to stay
I don´t want you to stay
You asked me did I know the colour of love
And I frowned and said yellow
“Cause yellow is the colour of my true love´s hair”
a yellow idea of passion –
sweet flower for a sour fruit
and a yellow bandana
My heart beats backwards when you cross my way
But no need for trumpets
I don´t want you to stay
I don´t want you to stay
But no need for trumpets
I don´t want you to stay
I don´t want you to stay
You asked me did I know the colour of love
And I said blue without thinking
