Shades

There are shades, they say, of green and blue

Of gold and silver light

And maybe I’ll remember, the softly changing colours

Blowing and blending with the coming night

When all of this is over, when all of this is over, is it over?

There are sands, I’m told, like seas of glass

Moving on the winds

And forever I’ll remember the expression in your eyes

Burning and chilling, at the same time

Let all of this be over, let all of this be over

So I can’t bear the colours, So I can’t bear the sounds

It hurts my heart to feel, How it hurts my hear to feel

There are seas, so they say, so dark and endless

Deeper than we can go

And stranger to remember the fathomless phrases on your lips

Understanding, trying to understand

Why all of this is over, why all of this is over, is it over?

So I can’t bear the colours, So I can’t bear the sounds

It hurts my heart to feel, ah How it hurts my hear to feel

I see your eyes, the turn of your head

I hear your voice, the tone of your words

Your mouth hides a little smile, it’s not for me

And my dreams look just like melting trees
