I copied this from the FAQ. Can somebody help Ulf with his requests for the three I haven't linked to? Thanks.

Dear I have a few songs I would like to have the lyrics to.

• The first one is I still Miss someone written by Johny Cash (click here for lyrics)
• the second one is a tune named Color of the Blues written by George Jones
• the third one is The Bandit written by Michael Carr together with a man nemed Kennedy and Nascimento
• the fourth and last one is The Eyes of Love written by Shelby Singelton.

I have been going through a lot of lyricsfiles but so far haven't been able to find the tunes. If a´nyone here could help me with it I'd be most delighted. Regards Ulf Svensson in Sweden.

COLOR OF THE BLUES
(Lawton Williams - George Jones)
« © '58 Travis Music »

Up above me are the skies like the twinkle in your eyes
These things are the colors of the blues
In the mail your letter came the ink and paper looked the same
Blue must be the color of the blues

Bluebird's singin' in the trees seems to sympathize with me
But he ain't singin' like he used to do
The pearly waters in the sea are as cold as you left me
Blue must be the color of the blues

[ piano ]

There's a rainbow overhead with more blue than gold and red
Blue must be the color angels choose
A blue suit you proudly wore when you left to return no more
Blue must be the color of the blues
Blue days come and blue days go how I feel nobody knows
Life is mighty empty without you
There's a blue note in each song that I sang since you've been gone

Blue must be the color of the blues

This is all I found about the other 2

This might be The Bandit--not sure here Not sure. The "nacio" is the only thing that matches even a little and the song is from a movie:
Words by Earl K. Brent and Edward Heyman, music by Nacio Herb Brown, 1948
The Kissing Bandit (sung by Frank Sinatra and Kathryn Grayson), 1948

This is absolutely all I could find about:The Eyes of Love - Singleton, Marcgie/Singleton, S.

Singleton, Margie. Country Girl, Sing Me a Song, Nashvile NLP 2029, LP (197?), cut#A.04
It's from the Folk Performer Index, and it's Margie instead of Shelby. No lyrics for it at all.

Sorcha, that's a recording index. Margie Singleton is the performer. Singleton, S. could be the writer & be Shelby.

Yes, probably. I looked up Shelby Singleton and he apparently wrote a lot of stuff, but I can't find lyrics.
