With a Hue in Blue

I wonder…

Why you snub me all the time,

Even when I’m with a friend.

So I didn’t love you, well now,

The world didn’t come to an end!

 

There was a time when we were close,

You and I

Saw each other every day or two,

And not just in passing by.

 

When I left you standing on the sidewalk,

You looked so all alone.

How I wish I hadn’t turned around to look,

That’s a memory I am loath to own.

 

 

I’m sorry that I hurt you;

It was either you or ma cherie,

And I ain’t gonna hurt that woman,

Even if she be the death of me!

 

Gazing into your eyes,

While you gazed into mine.

The students and classroom disappeared;

While (As) time lost its sign.

 

Visions of you and I married

Kept popping into my head.

Don’t know where those visions came from

While we were breaking bread.

 

I told myself (that) I didn’t love you,

But found that wasn’t really true

When deep inside me there arose a flame

That burned with a hue in blue.

 

I pretended not to love you,

But I knew that wasn’t really true.

Deep inside I hid that flame

That burned with a hue in blue.

 

It’s hard to believe that it happened;

It was so long ago….

Gazing into each other’s eyes

Hard to prove it ever was so.

 

Wish I could change the past,

But then again, maybe I don’t.

Whether (or not) it could have ever worked out

I’d like to know, but won’t.

 

I told myself that I didn’t love you,

But found that wasn’t really true

Oh! (When) Deep inside (me) there arose a flame

That burned with a hue in blue.

 

I pretend that I don’t love you,

But you should know that’s not really true.

Deep inside I still hide that flame

That burns with a hue in blue.
