I saw yellow in your smile It felt like sunshine So radiant it went for more than a mile I saw green in your eyes Full of life and sincerity Twinkling and never empty I saw orange in your touch Welcoming and warm It felt as if you could never be rough I saw blue in your tears Rare yet sad Mostly caused by your fears I saw red in your heart Unmistakably true your love was the hardest from which to part Now I realize how fast it all passed Your darker colors I failed to see Covered by all the others I regret what we came to be Now your blinding colors Don't seem so bright to me

Fleeting Colors
I saw yellow in your smile It felt like sunshine So radiant it went for more than a mile I saw green in your eyes Full of life and sincerity Twinkling and never empty I saw orange in your touch Welcoming and warm It felt as if you could never be rough I saw blue in your tears Rare yet sad Mostly caused by your fears I saw red in your heart Unmistakably true your love was the hardest from which to part Now I realize how fast it all passed Your darker colors I failed to see Covered by all the others I regret what we came to be Now your blinding colors Don't seem so bright to me
