Color

[Verse 1] I think in color when I think of you Not in words I can explain The room fills up with quiet shades Like sunlight after rain Every memory changes hue Depending where it starts Some people leave a photograph You left a palette on my heart [Pre-Chorus] You never had to say a thing Your silence had a glow Some feelings don’t arrive as words They arrive as tones [Chorus] I think in color when I think of you Everything gets rearranged Ordinary afternoons Bloom into another shade I think in color when I think of you Like the world remembers first Before my mind can catch it all My eyes already heard [Verse 2] Your laugh was never yellow Your sadness wasn’t blue Nothing fit the names we gave To everything we knew You lived somewhere between them all Where language loses ground Like light before it breaks apart Or music without sound [Pre-Chorus] Every feeling bends the light Just enough to show There’s a language underneath Only colors know [Bridge] Maybe that’s what love becomes After all the years Not a face I picture anymore But the way the daylight feels Every passing stranger Borrowing just enough To remind me for a second What your colors looked like [Final Chorus] I think in color when I think of you The whole horizon moves Like every hidden frequency Has found another room I think in color when I think of you Even now it’s true I don’t remember every word I remember every hue
