Colorful

the show is over - close the storybook

will be no encore

and all the random hands that i have shook

well, they're reaching for the door

i watch the backs as they leave single-file

you stood stubborn, cheering all the while

i know i can be colorful

i know i can be grey

i know this loser's living fortunate

cause i know you will love me either way

most were being good for goodness sake

but you wouldn't have to mind

you are more beautiful when you awake

than most are in a lifetime

through the haze that is my memory

you stayed for drama though you paid for a comedy

i know i can be colorful

i know i can be grey

i know this loser's living fortunate

cause i know you will love me either way

look ahead as far as you can see

we live in drama but we die in a comedy

i know i can be colorful (when you live in black and white)

i know i can be grey (my colors fade away)

i know this loser's living fortunate

cause i know you will love me either way
