Lyrics You Came Throwing Colors - Tom Paxton

You Came Throwing Colors

You came throwing colours
All around my blacks and greys
While I stood in wonder you just opened up my days
Let me tell you what you did to me
I wanna shout the news
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
Makes me wonder how I got
The way I used to be
Something in my head
Just simply made a mess of me
Then you told me love was possible
And you told me I was free
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
You came throwing colours
All around my blacks and greys
While I stood in wonder you just opened up my days
Let me tell you what you did to me
I wanna shout the news
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
Oh, I would sit for hours
Never noticing the sky
Chances came and went
You know, I let them scurry by
Then you told me love was possible
You made me want to try
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
Oh, you came throwing colours
All around my blacks and greys
While I stood in wonder you just opened up my days
Let me tell you what you did to me
I wanna shout the news
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
You came throwing colours 'round my blues
