brown to blue

Lovin' Spoonful

We stood there in the courthouse room
So close yet far apart
You had brought your lawyer and I brought
A broken heart
The judge pronounced the words the way
You wanted him to do
He changed your name from Brown to Jones
And mine from Brown to Blue

I couldn´t keep my tears from falling
On the courtroom floor
My love they took away
My rights to love you anymore

My world just seemed to stop
While I stood there so close to you
They changed your name from Brown to Jones
And mine from Brown to Blue

The judge forgot to tell me
How I´d live my life alone
What I would do without you
After loving you so long
He didn´t seem to care that I am still
In love with you
He changed your name from Brown to Jones
And mine from Brown to Blue.
