Lyrics for My Colouring Book

For those who fancy colouring books And lots of people do Here's a new one for you A most unusual colouring book The kind you'll never see Crayons ready? Very well Begin to colour me These are the eyes that watched him as he walked away Colour them gray This is the heart that thought he would always be true Colour it blue These are the arms that held him and touched him Lost him somehow Colour them empty now These are the beads I wore Until she came between Colour them green This is the room that I sleep in and walk in And weep in and hide in That nobody, nobody's seen Oh, colour it lonely, please This is the man whose love I depended upon Colour him gone
