I used to see in black and white

Never something in between

Waitin' on the love of my life

To come into my dreams

Everything in shades of gray

Never any blues or greens

I needed someone else to turn to

Someone who could help me learn to see

All the beauty that was waiting for me



You...you put the blue back in the sky

You put the rainbow in my eyes

The silver lining in my prayers

And now there's colour everywhere

You put the red back in the rose

Just when I needed it the most

You came along to show you care

And now there's colour everywhere



My life was so predictable

Never any mystery

But ever since you shined the light

All of that is history

Now I have a hand to hold

And a reason to believe

There's something in my life worth living for

I was hanging 'round just wishing on a star

To put the happiness back in my heart and



You...you put the blue back in the sky

You put the rainbow in my eyes

The silver lining in my prayers

And now there's colour everywhere

You put the red back in the rose

Just when I needed it the most

You came along to show you care

And now there's colour everywhere



I left those lazy days behind me

Never to return again

Now they're just a faded memory

'cause baby it's so clear to see

The beauty that was waiting for me



You...you put the blue back in the sky

You put the rainbow in my eyes

The silver lining in my prayers

And now there's colour everywhere

You put the red back in the rose

Just when I needed it the most

You came along to show you care

And now there's colour everywhere



You care and now there's colour everywhere

There's colour everywhere

There's colour everywhere
