Colours

  1. It never gets so dark now,
    It never gets so blue,
    No matter how the day sinks low
    I know I still have You:
    And the money rolls and the status flares
    And the trivia sticks like glue,
    But it doesn't matter any more
    Because I still have You.
  2. Some days my mind just goes black,
    There's not a word to say,
    But I can go inside myself
    And quietly try to pray:
    And the words pour out and the media blares
    And I feel its nasty smear
    But now that I know where to look
    You never disappear.
  3. It isn't always easy
    And it wasn't meant to be,
    To match in what I say and do
    The love You have for me:
    And the deals are made and broken
    And a million plans fall through
    But the only deal that interests me
    Is the one I've made with You.
  4. Sometimes it gets too cosy
    And I think I'm getting slack
    But it's when I least expect it
    That the devil will attack:
    And the routine sooths and the comfort smooths
    First to numb and then entrap,
    When it's easier to say nothing
    Than speak up and take the rap.
  5. Love comes in many colours
    And it sometimes comes in blue
    But the rainbow's compensation
    Is that colours come from You:
    And it's sometimes words and actions
    But at other times restraint
    Which helps to get me ready
    To become Your newest paint.
