Colour me in, Damien Rice

I tried to repress it

Then I carried its crown

I reached out to undress it

And love let me down

Love let me down…

So I tried to erase it

But the ink bled right through

Almost drove myself crazy

When these words led to you

And all these useless dreams of living alone

Like a dogless bone…

So come let me love you

Come let me love you

And then… colour me in

Well I tried to control it

And cover it up

I reached out to console it

It was never enough

Never enough…

So I tried to forget it

That was all part of the show

Told myself I'd regret it

But what do I know

About all these useless dreams of living alone

Like a dogless bone…

So come let me love you

Come let me love you

And then… colour me in

Come let me love you

Come let me take this through the end

Of all these useless dreams of living

In all these useless dreams

All these useless dreams of living

In all these old noes

Come let me love you

Come let me love you

Come let me love you

Come let me…
