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 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
Everytime 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 across the nightmares them 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 across the nightmares them 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 will never change inside my heart.
