Cornflower Blue Lyrics

"Cornflower Blue"

-Eric Bogle



Cornflower blue, bloomin' in the
mornin' sun

Tiny flowers that grew, from when our love had just
begun

Long ago we planted, each dry and dusty row

how long has it
taken, for the seeds of love to grow?

Cornflower
blue...



Cornflower blue, like the faded shirt you wore

Standing in
the shadows, when I opened up the door

The smile in your eyes, when you said
hello

Held me so tenderly, and you would not let me go

Cornflower
blue...



Cornflower blue, deeper than the evenin' sky

peaceful as a
river, bluer than goodbye

Blue like a diamond, when the light shines
true

If love came in colors, then I'd choose this one for
you

Cornflower blue...

Cornflower blue...
