Colours
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Looking out from day to day
At a dirty old expanse of motorway
I dream of colours when all around is grey
I dream of colours and sunlight
There's a way i'd rather be
Than the person who pretends that he is me
I dream of colours to be what i would be
I dream of colours, inspires me
Suddenly, a shaft of light breaks through
Illuminates the room (gloom?)
When all around was darkened
And tender hues of light and shade
it paints a picture of an altogether brighter day
Looking out from day to day
At a dirty old expensive motorway
I dream of colours when all around is grey
I dream of colours.. And sunlight
Sunlight.. Sunglight.. And sunlight..
