Pentangle
Colour My Paintbook
[Verse 1]
Why don't you colour, colour my paintbook
With blue, scarlet red?
I want to see the moon bright and yellow
With pretty rainbows overhead

[Verse 2]
Why don't you whisper, eloquent sweet nothings
Nothings in my ear?
I want to hear you say that you love me
I want to feel your body near

[Verse 3]
Why don't you tell me a bedtime story
A perfect fairy tale?
I want to be your princess, my darling
Carry you away from here

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 4]
Why don't you colour, colour my paintbook
With blue, scarlet red?
I want to see the moon bright and yellow
With pretty rainbows overhead
[Verse 5]
Why don't you whisper, eloquent sweet nothings
Nothings in my ear?
I want to hear you say that you love me
I want to feel, feel your body nеar

[Verse 6]
Why don't you tell me a bedtimе story
A perfect fairy tale?
I want to be your princess, my darling
Carry you away from here
