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.
