I speak to you in velvet blue
Words so soft and sad and true

But I remember, most our days
Had deep and open color displays

Days of yellow bold bright
Days of laughter's sweet delight

Days of orange when we were warm
My heart held whole, my chest not torn

Even gray and black and red
When we were hurt by words we said

Those deep and vibrant colors past
I wish we could have made them last

The blue I speak is cold but true
This is my last goodbye to you
