John Martyn - Colour lyrics

I don't care what they say
I do care what I do
That's why you can stand by me
I will always stand by you
Oh believe me child
I'll stand by you to be sure
I will stand by you yes I will

Took all my sunshine left me out in the rain
Took all my pleasure left me this pain
You took my rainbow and left me only blue
I know you did
Stole my colours and left me only blue
Took me for a loser took my money too
Stole my appaloosa the bitches
Don't like horses either
Took all my colour tried to leave
Me with blue sweet blue
Stole my little painting box one
Day and left me blue

Oh try to take all my
Future leave me the past
Tried to take all my in between
And leave me to last
Took all my colours, left me blue
That's what you did
Took all my coloured sky and
Left me only blue

Took every chance every liberty too
You're bored of romance and my
Heart's shot straight through
Stolen all my colours only got
My deep deep blue
All my colours have gone and left
Me with blue in my heart

Took all the credit and left me the blame
Basked in the glory while you
Left me in shame
Took all my colours still left
Me my blues sweet blue
Took all my colours still got
My little boy blue

I don't care what they say
And I do care about everything I do
Oh stand by me you know I will stand by you
All the way
Stand by me, I, I will stand by you ah yeah

Stole all my colour and only
Got my deep deep blue
Saved my colours child
Try to leave me with the blue only blue
I don't care what they say but
I do care what I do
I don't care what they say
I'm gonna stay in here
Stand by me and I will stand by you
