The first time you walk on the beach And the first time you notice what's so close, yet out of reach. The first time you dance with him at night And the color of his voice when he says "It's alright." Then it's the bump of every sound wave, Making you hold on to every word
The color of his veins, matching yours at dawn. Being so happy, until everything is gone. Then, it's the color of seeing him leave. It's when you grieve. It is when you cry yourself to sleep, Tears running down your face But somehow it is still your saving grace. When you wake up, and you have nothing to say
But no matter what, you still see that day When the pain finally leaves, and you meet them Their colored hair so contrast to yours It's when it becomes the warmest color. It's the color of your dim-lighted eyes Finally, coming back to life.
