Lyrics Colour Me - The Blue Aeroplanes

Colour Me

Let me tell you
Tell me something
Tell me what it is you do
Give me something
Time or someone
Someone worth my talking to
I’ve paid
I’m owned
I’m set
I’m over
I’m talking to you
In bar code
Yeah, you got Piaf, Marlowe
Dylan Thomas, all those beats
They could be played by Tom Waits
They made a mess of their lives
No regrets?
Well, of course
Cover me with love affairs
Cover me with roses
Colour me with burnt sienna
Show me where my heart is
Kiss it away
Kiss it away
Leaning on the stairs in your sweet house
You can make me
Seem like you
OK I like you
You can me me like you
OK I’m like you
But that’s not all there is
How do you want to
Describe this?
Why?
Draw yourself a painting
From someone else’s well head
Buy one.
Steal one
Give the money to the artist anonymously
But …
… cover me with love affairs
Cover me with roses
Colour me with burnt sienna
Show me where it all is
How your picture is here
It’s in my head
It’s sent from an ocean
A gender apart
Elvis sings Return to Sender
Runs his wheel
We all get younger
Love is thirst
Sex is hunger
All that reads as one for the road
Listen to me
Listen to me talking
Talking to you in bar code
I’ll talk you
Talk me a bargain
Seal me with a kiss and take me home
