Lyrics
China Blue
© Jonathan Helfand
A ringlet of your red-gold hair came loose and settled softly as a feather
from a passing angel's wing.
I smiled as it descended, kissed the hollow of your throat and felt you tremble
like you'd heard that angel sing.
You came into my arms and turned your face up while my fingers traced
the laugh lines 'round your eyes of China Blue
China Blue
You could start a fire with your touch
I'm burning all the time
China Blue
You could stop a heart with that smile
You stop mine, with your eyes of China Blue
A million auburn freckles grace your alabaster body,
and I swear I'll kiss each one before I die.
Your hair fanned out around you makes a sunset on our pillow
in the pool of silver moonlight where we lie.
And when you cry my name I hear a tear-stained benediction
I see the love-light in your eyes of China Blue.
China Blue
You could start a fire with your touch
You've got me burning all the time
China Blue
You could stop a heart with that smile
You stop mine, with your eyes of China Blue
Time's hand may fade the gold to silver
There'll be a number to our days
I'll find a thousand ways to say I love you.
You know it's true. I can see it in your eyes of..
China Blue
You could start a fire with your touch
You've got me burning all the time
China Blue
You could stop a heart with that smile
You stop mine, with your eyes of China Blue
