Now there is only blue skies to surround me
There's never been a gray day since you found me
Everything I touch is turning to gold
Oh, you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day
Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way
Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above
And if you colour my world just paint it with your
love, just colour my world
Just as long as I know you're thinking of me
There'll be a rainbow always up above me
Since I found the one who really loves me
Everything I touch is turning to gold
So you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day
Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way
Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above
And if you colour my world just paint it with your
love, just colour my world
Sunshine yellow
Orange blossoms
Laughing faces
Everywhere, yeah
So you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day
Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way
Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above
And if you colour my world just paint it with your
love, just colour my world
Colour my world
Oh, colour my world
