Colors
Tift Merritt
Have I held too tight?
Should I just let go?
When you break, is it from weakness
Or trying to be too strong?
White bones in my fingers hang on like chalk in rain
What will I know tomorrow that I don't know today?
Have I asked too much?
Is anything enough?
Is there something else to open?
Have I held enough?
Red marks the joy and sorrow inside down in the veins
What will I know tomorrow that I don't know today?
Everything will be revealed in time
Becoming what we must become
All the colors that I see, will keep me company
Till my sleeping heart wakes up in the Sun
Till his sleeping heart wakes up in the Sun
Have I done some good?
Have I been too brave?
Looking for things that don't exist
Is that why I'm afraid?
The dark is what we move in
And the blue shows me the way
What will I know tomorrow that I don't know today?
Everything will be revealed in time
Becoming what we must become
All the colors that I see, will keep me company
Till my sleeping heart wakes up in the Sun
May his sleeping heart wake up in the Sun
