Little Girl Blue

Little girl blue, won’t you come and see

A rainbow grows inside you and me

Cold as red hot ice, so dry it burns your fingertips black

Hot as blue searing fire, so intense it freezes the palms of your hands pale white

Press your fingers to the wall of bullet gray

Stripes and polka dots, send your patterns across the sky

Changes move fast and slow but look how far you have to go

Nothing is forever black and white

Little girl blue, come and see

A rainbow lies inside you and me

Blue, red, purple, indigo

Gold and silver, every color grand as you

Green, orange, yellow, violet

Clouds swirl above silver mist

Colors waving high, flying free

Rainbow wings take you anywhere

Little girl blue, come and see

A rainbow will always be inside you and me

Bad people come and go

The ones who matter stay

But don’t you worry young one

Acception and love are headed your way

Flaunt who you are and color the sky

Shades only you know the meaning of

Little girl blue, come and see

We’ve painted a rainbow, you and me
