Bluebottle blue is not the colour
It is a fable and far from true
You opened the gates to Heaven
and showed me it's azure-blue


Bluebottle blue is not the colour
The shades I see are profound
Your soul a gaudy mixture
against a deep blue ground


Bluebottle blue is not the colour
of the morning you gave to me
It came to me in indigo
as the violets I presented thee


Bluebottle blue is not the colour
of the room where my heart do dwell
My emotions are tinged with mauve
As the memory of our farewell


Bluebottle blue is not the colour
I saw the celestial nuances in you
You shared with me your Heaven
You showed me it's azure-blue.
