The Verve Pipe Colorful Lyrics

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 pantomime
You are more beautiful when you awake
Than most are in a lifetime
Through the haze that is my memory
Well, you stayed for drama though you paid for a comedy

I know I can be colorful
I know I can be grey
And I know this loser's living fortunate
And I know you will love me either way

Look ahead as far as you can see, well...
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
And I know you will love me either way
I know I can be colorful
(When you live in black and white)
I know I can be grey
(My colors fade away)
And I know this loser's living fortunate
And I know you will love me
Cause I know you will love me
I know you will love me either way
