Colour Me Music © Copyright Skutch - Lyrics © Copyright Patience

There was a time, I am, lived in the child

each moment began a different colour of true

I am colours of prime - pure innocence of mind

heart and soul

colour me wonderful

See the child learn the program in play

the lesson begins on a palette of themes

A human experience is showing the way

waiting to surface

colour me grey

Every waking day someone paints a notion

a little bit of they a bit of them in motion

I’m changing colour to blend their way

biding their time

colours my Now

See the girl see the boy - take aim with their toy

terror runs through the veins of our youth

And the people paint freedom

on a wall of disdain

In the city of greed

colour me bleed

See the leaders stand tall - cries of victory for all

but the force still lives on

for a forgotten cause

and mothers still weep for their sons and daughters

We learnt how

colour me empty now

Every waking day someone paints a notion

a little bit of they a bit of them in motion

We’re changing colour to blend their way

doing their time

colour me blind

And futility comes as a state of mind

it crept in while you were sleeping

And they say you can’t change it now

there must be a way

colour me how

A father holds a son in loving embrace

the bridges are burnt to the darker place

A grandfather’s voice is the wisdom of themes

See the child learn the program from a palette of peace

There was a time, I am, lived in the child

every waking day someone paints a notion

colour me.....colour me

Every moment is mine to claim and I’ll make it

a little bit of me a bit of them in motion.

colour me.....colour me

I’m changing colour to blend my way

beneath the surface, I am, lays waiting….

to colour me rainbow again.
