The Colours Have Run Songtext
von Clouds

What colour′s the sky?
How bright is the Sun?
When seen through a tear
The colours have run
The leaves turn to gold
Just once every year
I know when it's cold
Winter is here
Or at least, very near


The words of a song
Are only a tear,
A faraway sound
Of some other year
Though time marches on
It ends here for me
The colours have run
The Sun′s in the sea
In the sea

For who can tell you why
A man is born to die
The colours have run
The colours have run

So maybe I'm wrong
Can anyone say
Why a butterfly lives
For only a day
A love that is dead
Cannot linger on
So often I've said
The colours have run
The songs have been sung
The colours have run...
