I tried meeting someone new too It always feels kinda good too Until that one part of the night When they'll ask my favourite colour And I have to lie Cause how could I ever tell her It's not blue like the ocean It's not quite like the sky It's deeper than the stormy seas Even when they cry And it's not like me to start off telling lies But how could I ever describe The colour of your eyes, eyes The colour of your eyes, eyes It's in my head and it won't move Permanent like a tattoo I thought it faded with the time but When I'm out with another It's goes alright 'Til they ask my favourite colour It's not green like forest It's not green like the high That we had back in Colorado We laughed until we cried And it's not like me to start off telling lies But how could I ever describe The colour of your eyes, eyes The colour of your eyes, eyes It's not that I've been trying To keep you in my mind It don't matter the person They ask me every time But when you'd ask me I never had to lie I couldn't wait to say your favourite lie The colour of your eyes
