Lyrics Colors - Valerie June

Colors

Well I lie, lie awake
On a cool damn night
Giving in all up to the darkness
Just to see
Just to visit with the light
And it makes, my eyes wet again
Just to think of where we’ve been
Since we’ve begun
Count my wrongs and multiply them
By the rights to justify just what I feel
What I feel inside
Well I don’t, I don’t seem to worry
Not 'nuff about one
Too much these days
'Bout the time left to get things done
Oh the days as, as they come my way
They all vanish into one
So I paint what love
Yes love of this life
As I watch them fade to grey
Colours of orange, red, black and green
All have me bursting at the seams
And know that every day
Is a dyin' day
And when I feel like I can’t go on
I might need you to carry on
And when I feel the lonely is longing
I might need you to carry on
Said don’t analyse it
Or try to resize it
To make yourself fit in all this bullshit
About what life’s s’posed to
'N what not s’posed to be
You gotta be real cool child
So you won’t be fooled now
And you hold on tight child
And you do us right yes
Know that every day
Is a living day
Know that every day
Is a dying day
Oh and it goes on and on and on and on and on
Yes love, 'cause this life
Is just a song, is just a song
Yeah
And I count my wrongs and multiply them
By the rights to justify just what I feel
What I feel inside
Colors of orange, red black and green
All have me bursting at the seams
And know that every day
Is a dyin' day
Is a living day
Is a dyin' day
