I Used To Be Color Blind — Ella Fitzgerald

Strange

How a dreary world can suddenly change

To a world as bright as the evening star

Queer

What a difference when your vision is clear

And you see things as they really are

I used to be color-blind

But I met you and now I find

Theres green in the grass

Theres gold in the moon

Theres blue in the skies

That semi-circle that was always hanging about

Is not a storm cloud, its a rainbow

And you brought the colors out

Believe me its really true

Till I met you I never knew

A setting sun could paint such beautiful skies

I never knew there were such lovely colors

And the big surprise

Is the red in your cheeks

The gold in your hair

The blue in your eyes
