"My Favourite Colour" lyrics

I tried meeting someone new too
It always feels kinda good too
Until that one part of the night
When they'll ask my favourite colour
And I have to lie
Cause how could I ever tell her

It's not blue like the ocean
It's not quite like the sky
It's deeper than the stormy seas
Even when they cry
And it's not like me to start off telling lies
But how could I ever describe
The colour of your eyes, eyes
The colour of your eyes, eyes

It's in my head and it won't move
Permanent like a tattoo
I thought it faded with the time but
When I'm out with another
It's goes alright
'Til they ask my favourite colour

It's not green like forest
It's not green like the high
That we had back in Colorado
We laughed until we cried
And it's not like me to start off telling lies
But how could I ever describe
The colour of your eyes, eyes
The colour of your eyes, eyes

It's not that I've been trying
To keep you in my mind
It don't matter the person
They ask me every time
But when you'd ask me
I never had to lie
I couldn't wait to say your favourite lie
The colour of your eyes
