[Intro]
The tears I cried for you that day are like the tears I cry today
The pain I feel inside reminds me that I'm living everyday
The thoughts of you that fill my head go 'round and round like yesterday
And all the love I feel for you will bring me through another day
[Verse 1]
All around me there are people telling me who I should be
I hate to disappoint you but these are the colors that I see
If there's just as many colors as there are a human beings
Maybе I'm just color-blind and missing out on everything
Without a word I'm watching as my life keep passing by
Dеsperately I'm reaching for the days I've left behind
And no matter what I try the colors won't collide
Painting on a canvas of the scars I tried to hide
[Chorus]
I take the dreams that live inside my heart
And splash them across the nightmares in my head
With trembling hand I try to draw
The person that I wish that I could be
The feeling of your fingers on my skin
It lingers even after all these years
It's the only color that
Remains inside my heart
[Verse 2]
Everytime I try to look into the shadows of your eyes
I feel that somewhere deep inside, another light within me dies
Everytime I try to solve the mysteries hidden in your hands
Another hint is washed away and lost inside the hourglass
[Bridge]
With each breathe your memory fades to gray
Losing hold, you try to find the way
Now alone again as silence falls
The only sound is my laughter
[Chorus 2]
I take the dreams that live inside my heart
And splash them across the nightmares in my head
I closed my eyes and try to change
The person that I know that I've become
The echo of your words inside my mind
It lingers even after all these years
I pray that it will never fade
Inside my broken heart
[Bridge]
With each breathe your memory fades to gray
Losing hold, you try to find the way
Now alone again as silence falls
The only sound is my laughter
[Chorus]
I take the dreams that live inside my heart
And splash them across the nightmares in my head
With trembling hand I try to draw
The person that I wish that I could be
The feeling of your fingers on my skin
It lingers even after all these years
It's the only color that
Will never change inside my heart
