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
All around me there are people telling me who I should be
I hate to disappoint you but these are the colorsthat I see
If there's just as many colors as there are a human beings
Maybe I'm just color-blind and missing out on everything
Without a word I'm watching as my life keep passing by
Desperately I'm reaching for the days I've left behin
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 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
Everytime I try to look into the shadows of your eyes
I feel thet 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
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
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
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
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
