[Intro – piano] [Verse 1] You don't need a reason For sitting in the rain You don't need an answer For every little pain Some days arrive in yellow Some disappear in grey And some bring just a little blue To carry through the day [Verse 2] I used to fight the weather I used to blame the sky I thought that being happy Meant never asking why But clouds are only passing They've somewhere else to go And maybe there's a little room For things we cannot know [Chorus] A little bit of blue Is all I'm asking for Not enough to drown the day Just enough to see it more A little bit of blue Between the green and gold Something quiet, something true Something I don't have to hold [Instrumental – piano / soprano saxophone] [Verse 3] The cup is on the table The window's open wide Someone's laughing in the street There's nothing left to hide And for a little moment I don't need to understand The world can keep its mysteries I'll take them as they land [Chorus] A little bit of blue Is all I need today Not a cure for everything Not a cloud to chase away A little bit of blue Between the dark and light Something small enough to lose And beautiful enough to find [Outro – piano] Maybe blue Was never sad at all. [Soprano saxophone]
