Colors Lyrics by Valerie June

The Way of the Weeping Willow

2013

[Verse 1]
Well, I lie
Lie awake
On a cool
Damn night
Giving it all up to the darkness
Just to see
Just to visit with the light
And it makes my eyes well again
Just to think of where we've been
Since we've begun
[Chorus]
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
No love about worrying
Too much these days
[Verse 2]
'Bout the time left to get things done
Or the years as, as they come my way
They all vanish into one
So I paint while all of their fears
Yeah, swallow this life
As I watch them fade to grey
[Chorus]
Colors of orange, red, black and green
They all have me bursting at the seams
And I know that every day
It is a dyin' day
[Post-Chorus]
And it goes on and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
Yes, love, 'cause this life (On and on and on and on)
It is just a song (On and on and on and on)
[Chorus]
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 I know that every day
It is a livin' day
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, it goes on and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
Yes, love, 'cause this life (On and on and on and on)
Is just a song, just a song (On and on and on and on)
[Outro]
Count my wrongs and multiply them
By the rights to justify just what I feel
