lyrics

Blue
(Song For Bobby)

Blue
mirror in the sky
reflects the way we live
hides the reason why
Blue
treasure in your heart
do your part and love the seeds you’re sowing

Everyone you know is better for the knowing
everyone you touch is always by your side
everyone who’s near you brightens up their glowing
and your path to follow grows a mile wide

Blue
the tonic for your soul
the color fills a hole
giving virtue
Blue
we spiral through the space
the race that makes the race
and keeps on growing

Blue always falls down from the sky
catch the falling star,
tuneful jamboree
Blue dancing with a tambourine,
long and graceful leap
tuneful jamboree

Blue
time to live the masquerade
walk along the shore
become your own parade
You
spiral through the space
for the race that makes the race
and keeps evolving

Everyone you’ve loved is better for the loving
Everyone you’ve touched is still there by your side
everyone who’ve felt you brighten up their glowing
and their path to follow grows a mile wide

Soon, yeah we’ll get together soon
have ourselves some beers
listen to some tunes
soon, yeah we’ll have ourselves a time
relinquish all the fears
and get a little high
Blue always falls down from the sky
catch the falling star,
tuneful jamboree
Blue dancing with a tambourine,
long and graceful leap
tuneful jamboree

Pete Jones Plays Genesis - Selling England For A Pound (Charity Release)
by Tiger Moth Tales

This is one of the best interpretations I've heard of Genesis music, Pete would have made an excellent replacement vocalist for the band itself, he has a lovely feel for the songs, and a perfect voice for the material Colman Jones
