The tears I cry 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 a 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 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
