Jeris Johnson
Colourblind
[Verse 1]
I tried colouring you, changing your hue
To inspire something all new that I couldn't do

[Pre-Chorus]
Now all I paint is grey skies
A rainbow washed in turpentine
It left me in black and white
I wasn't always colourblind

[Chorus]
I'm not saying I love you, I just mean
Maybe grass on your side really was green
And I came in with a fire burning red
And I turned your meadow yellow instead
I'm not saying I miss you, I just think
I have dreams where I kiss you and it's pink
And I wake up in a room full of blue
And I remember how violet looked on you

[Verse 2]
Tone down how I preferred every word
And wash out all that you were, lines that I blurred

[Pre-Chorus]
Now all I paint is grey skies
A rainbow washed in turpentine
It left me in black and white
I wasn't always colourblind
[Chorus]
I'm not saying I love you, I just mean
Maybe grass on your side really was green
And I came in with a fire burning red
And I turned your meadow yellow instead
I'm not saying I miss you, I just think
I have dreams where I kiss you and it's pink
And I wake up in a room full of blue
And I remember how violet looked on you

[Bridge]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Ooh, woah

[Pre-Chorus]
Now all I paint is grey skies
A rainbow washed in turpentine
It left me in black and white
I wasn't always colourblind

[Chorus]
I'm not saying I love you, I just mean
Maybe grass on your side really was green
And I came in with a fire burning red
And I turned your meadow yellow instead
I'm not saying I miss you, I just think
I have dreams where I kiss you and it's pink
And I wake up in a room full of blue
And I remember how violet looked on you
I came in with a fire burning red
And I turned your meadow yellow instead
I wake up in a room full of blue
And I remember how violet looked on you
