Yellow Red Or Blue Song | Donal Morrissey Ballads

Yellow Red Or Blue

The Inspiration

“Yellow Red Or Blue” was inspired by the psychological and emotional resonance of the primary colours, using them as a metaphor for the different moods and spiritual needs that shape our daily lives. Written as a reflective meditation, the song explores how colour influences human perception and energy, yellow bringing cheerfulness and intellectual clarity, red kindling passion and power, and blue offering a sense of calm, divine wisdom, and trust.

The song also stems from a desire to find harmony within life’s varied experiences and emotional landscapes. Rather than choosing a single path, the lyricist sees all three fundamental colours as essential threads of a vibrant, fulfilling life. By framing these primary hues as a “heavenly blend” capable of lifting the human spirit, the song serves as an uplifting wish for balance, inviting listeners to welcome optimism, passion, and peace into every day.

First Verse
What colour awakens my day?
Will it be warm yellow, I pray?
Filled with happiness, sunshine and joy,
Where intellect and chosen hope apply,
Buoys confidence and attention each day,
Let yellow be, my cheerful day.

Second Verse
What colour enkindles my day?
Will it be intense red, I pray,
This bold colouring, of blood and fire,
Stirs real passion for the souls we admire,
Evokes power and emotions each day,
Let love red be, my joyful day.

Chorus
Can all my days be yellow, red or blue,
Colours that blend, with a heavenly hue,
Colours where the spirit, will always lift you,
Can all my days, be yellow, red or blue?

Third Verse
What colour enlightens my day?
Will it be real calm blue, I pray?
Let God’s divine space, of sky and sea,
Inspire soul faith, deep trust, and loyalty,
Evokes wisdom and reflection each day,
Let sky blue be, my faithful day.

Chorus
Can all my days be yellow, red or blue,
Colours that blend, with a heavenly hue,
Colours where the spirit, will always lift you,
Can all my days, be yellow, red or blue
