NINA GORDON - Watercolors lyrics

rate me

Once in a while

You ask for a smile

And what am I going to say?

My tears are real

I like how they feel

I like how they carry me away

Baby I'm warning you

I'm happiest when I'm blue

Now I'm bleeding like watercolors

Keep me dreaming in pale blues and greens

Keep on running like watercolors

Lead me back to the sea

I'm just a fool

I talk out of school

I do things I should not do

But I'm not ashamed

It's the way that I'm made

I'm sorry but I'll never change for you

At least I can tell the truth

That I'm happiest when I'm blue

Now I'm bleeding like watercolors

Keep me dreaming in pale blues and greens

Keep on running like watercolors

Lead me back to the sea

Nightshade and Opaline

Blackbirds and faded dreams

And I'm falling, falling down

I keep falling, falling down

Baby I'm warning you

I'm happiest when I'm blue

When I'm blue

Now I'm bleeding like watercolors

Keep me dreaming in pale blues and greens

Keep on running like watercolors

Wide and open and blue like the sea

Always running like watercolors

Ocean colors that bleed for me

Keep on running like watercolors

And lead me back to the sea

Just lead me back to the sea
