Bitter Shade Of Green

(C)2002 S.D. Sims

Your blue eyes left me cold
In this bitter, lonely world
And I think I’ve seen enough
I think I’ve had enough


And to my surprise
When I look into your eyes
There is no blue
Just a bitter shade of green


The bitterest colour green
I’ve ever seen


I can see through your lies
And the changing colour of your eyes
And it takes the pain away
It cannot make me sway


To see you stare at me
So indifferent, I see
No feeling
Just a bitter shade of green


But you can never hurt me
Wait and see


You’ll see flowers in the dark
Unbeautiful and stark
And through my open mind
I’ll see those flowers in your eyes


And I can’t pretend
That we were any less than friends
But I hate you
And that bitter shade of green


The shade that put you so far
Out of reach


Your cold eyes left me blue
Now I don’t feel anything for you
And I think I’ve seen enough
I’ve had enough


No more eyes of blue
No more falling into you
I’m through
With that bitter shade of green


The coldest colour green
I’ve ever seen


A bitter shade of green
