The different shades of white
Are in my head tonight
What happened to the colours of fire?
What happened to the colours?
She is painting forty different shades of white
On white paper
On white paper
Glowing happiness arrived the day
Baby came to stay
And all is well in the new world
I, on the other hand
Can't seem to settle down
My eyes hurry not to see her falling away from me
I’m painting forty different shades of green
For all I'm worth, on yesterday's paper
But innocence is never news
The black keeps bleeding through
Only to reveal our worldly blues
Doesn’t seem so long since we were young
Oh, when we were young
When we were young
Are in my head tonight
What happened to the colours of fire?
What happened to the colours?
She is painting forty different shades of white
On white paper
On white paper
Glowing happiness arrived the day
Baby came to stay
And all is well in the new world
I, on the other hand
Can't seem to settle down
My eyes hurry not to see her falling away from me
I’m painting forty different shades of green
For all I'm worth, on yesterday's paper
But innocence is never news
The black keeps bleeding through
Only to reveal our worldly blues
Doesn’t seem so long since we were young
Oh, when we were young
When we were young
