MY COLORING BOOK

Streisand Barbra

For those who fancy coloring books,
As many people do,
Here's a new one for you,
A most unusual coloring book,
The kind you seldom see,
Crayons ready, crayons set,
Begin to color me.

These are the eyes that watched her
as she walked away,
Color them gray,

This is the heart that felt she
would always be true,
Color it blue,

These are the arms that held her,
and touched her, then lost her somehow,
Color them empty now,
This is the tie I wore
until he came between,
Color it green,

This is the room I sleep in
and walk in and weep in
and hide in so no one can see,
Color it lonely now,

This is the girl,
the one I depended upon,
Color her gone...
