make them blue for you

I grew a garden

every time I thought about you

hoping at some point you would

see the thousands of plants and flowers

and small trees 

magical gardens

displaying only the colors you like

forest or sage green and deep purple

dark red and silver and gold

12 shades of blue

I'd blend the best shades, baby

just to make them blue for you

so when you were sad

the blue in the star light 

shone down on the 

blue in the garden

and the sadness would inch away

one tear at a time

I would see you slide up to the edge

I would see you lean over the ledge

then I would put my arms around you

I would blend the best shades, baby

just to make them blue for you
