Yellow was the color of my first lost hair I made every effort let her know I care Every song that I'd sing Let her now I was at her feet And she'd smile as I'd say She's the prettiest girl I'd ever seen But her walls were up Her heart was closed And I found myself thinkin Not the sweetest song could break her From the lonely place she firmly chose to be Never thought I'd fall for brown Until I found the girl right next door Love never felt so effortlessly And I'd never think to ask for more But she broke my heart With the words she never said Oh. Purple hair it does to me What sugar does to kids before their teens I thought that this was love again Until we found ourselves without a plan I guess someday I'll come to understand
