Rick Springfield - The Night Is A Friendly Color lyrics

Springfield Blue is the color of the sky in summer The color of my baby's eyes Pink is the color of the evening clouds and fresh baked cherry pies Green is the color of the forest Where the animals play But what is the color when the sun goes down At the end of a busy day? The night is a friendly color Welcomes us all to sleep The night is a friendly color Its wide and warm and deep So close your eyes And don't be afraid of the size of the dark and twinkling sky Because the night is a friendly color And we'll all be sleeping by and by Gold is the color of the waving wheat and the color of the morning sun Silver is the color of the old man's hair and the stars when the day is done Bronze is the color of the canons On an old sunken ship But what is the color when the moon comes up And the big dipper starts to dip? The night is a friendly color Welcomes us all to sleep The night is a friendly color It's wide and warm and deep So close your eyes And don't be afraid of the size of the dark and twinkling sky Because the night is a friendly color And we'll all be sleeping by and by Purple are the mountains in the desert sky The crimson is the setting sun But what is the color when the moon comes up and the day is finally done? The night is a friendly color Welcomes us all to sleep The night is a friendly color It's wide and warm and deep So close your eyes And don't be afraid of the size of the dark and twinkling sky Because the night is a friendly color We'll all be sleeping by and by The night is a friendly color The night is a friendly color
