Damien Rice Colour Me In Lyrics

I tried to repress it, then I carried it's crown.
I reached out to undress it, but love let me down.
Love let me down...
So I tried to erase it, but the ink bled right through.
Almost drove myself crazy when these words led to you.
And all these useless dreams of living alone,
Like a dogless bone...

So come let me love you.
Come let me love you, and then,
Colour me in.

Well, I tried to control it, and cover it up.
I reached out to console it, but it was never enough.
Never enough...
So I tried to forget it, that was all part of the show. Told myself I'd regret it, but what do I know,
About all the useless dreams of living alone,
Like dogless bone...

So come let me love you.
Come let me love you, and then,
Colour me in.

So come let me love you.
Come let me take this through the end
Of all these useless dreams of living,
In all these useless dreams...
Of all these useless dreams of living,
In all these old noes.

So come let me love you...
Come let me love you...
Come let me love you...
