Lyrics
The snow ain't green and the grass ain't white
I can't change those colors Can't make mine right
Tell me how can I change this color of blue.
There comes a time when feelings go wrong.
And the hurtin starts And it comes on strong
Tell me how can I change this color of blue
When your tears can't wash the pain away
Seems like nothin's gonna make it feel OK
It's time to open up and talk it out
Let someone know what its all about
Chorus:
Tell me how can I change this color of blue
Turn it into another hue
Something warm like I once knew
Can you tell me where I need to go
Won't you tell me if you know
Is there a place where the blues don't show.
Oh no no oh no Instrumental
Every word is sad In every song I hear.
The skies are grey, and don't ever clear
Tell me how can I change this color of blue
Time keeps passing, and the clocks they tick
There's still no color that I can pick
Tell me how can I change this color of blue
When your heart takes on a different shade
And all that's bright just starts to fade
Everything's a lie that once was true
And you can't find the color that was you
Chorus: Tell me how.........
The snow ain't green and the grass ain't white
I can't change those colors Can't make mine right
Tell me how can I change this color of blue
Tell me how can I change this color of blue
