Colours Lyrics by Floodlights

Painting of My Time

0

[Verse 1]
What pleasures can I take from the things around?
And how can I stop the reach of a resentful hand?
Beauty beckons, but only for a second
All the love I hold, suddenly questioned

[Verse 2]
How can I catch the energy when it's soaring?
And use it in a time of need when things are falling?
An untold flow from every person and everything
A bouncer to my senses, just let the good ones in
Hey

[Pre-Chorus]
What pleasures, what pleasures
What pleasures can I hold in my hand?
And how can I keep the colours
From fading away?
What pleasures, what pleasures
What pleasures can I hold in my hand?
And how can I keep the colours
From fading away?

[Chorus]
It's the colours
The colours in me
That I have trouble holding onto
And not letting the ink run free
It's the colours
The colours in me
That I have trouble holding onto
And not letting the ink run free

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
How do I take the pleasures?
How do I take them?
How do I take the pleasures?
How do I take them?
The pleasures, the pleasures, the pleasures
How do I take them?
The pleasures, the pleasures, the pleasures
How do I take them?
How do I take them?

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
How do I take the pleasures?
How do I take the pleasures?
