lyrics

The Colour of Gone
Dave Gunning / Matt Andersen – SOCAN

I’ve been adrift through these nights on my own
On a never ending ocean that won’t let you go
It’s dark and it’s deep and it finds me asleep
On some lonely shore
Where the days go by like a train
With cold empty cars each one is the same
The weight of the wheels is pounding the steel
Leaving me behind
Blue was the colour
Of the eyes of my lover
As she cried while I sang her our song
And blue was the sky
That turned into night
Now blue is the colour of gone
And now blue is the colour of gone
My walls all fell to the ground
When I thought I saw her face in a crowd
I’d been taking my time to slowly unwind
This long fading feeling of mine
The window was silvery cold
The city lights of amber were only fool’s gold
Like a torch in the night that jet plane soon flying
Over a dark ocean wide
