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 every day 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
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 human beings maybe I'm just color-blind and missing out on everything
Without a word I'm watching as my life keeps passing by Desperately 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
I take the dreams that live inside my heart and splash them across the nightmares in my head With trembling hands 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
Every time I try to look into the shadows of your eyes I feel that somewhere deep inside, another light within me dies Every time I try to solve the mysteries hidden in your hands another hint is washed away and lost inside the hourglass
With each breath 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
I take the dreams that live inside my heart and splash them across the nightmares in my head I close 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
With each breath 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
I take the dreams that live inside my heart and splash them across the nightmares in my head With trembling hands 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
