Lotus Child These Colours lyrics

I don't know why
I can't shake the way
the way you smile to say everything.
You breathe me in
Floating in your eyes
and I can feel your skin by osmosis.

If we could stay here now
holding this young rose
would the space between close, kiss, and bloom it?
And though I can't be yours
I want to hold your gaze
I want to hold that star that gleams and sees me.

You make it seem as if I'm
for the very first time
like the very first time I've seen in colour.
You make it seem as if I'm
for the very first time
like the very first time I've felt my heart breathe.

Across the room a candle lights her eyes
reflecting off somewhere, somewhere above me.
Her body waits down here in a group of friends.
She's swaying in step with her head's ebbing.

You make it seem as if I'm
for the very first time
like the very first time I've seen in colour.
You make it seem as if I'm

for the very first time
like the very first time I've felt my heart breathe.

And I keep seeing you in my sleep
your arms surround me
your eyes are deep
you lay beside me and kiss my cheek
and I just slip into you
and there I steep.

You make it seem as if I'm
for the very first time
like the very first time I've seen in colour.
You make it seem as if I'm
for the very first time
like the very first time I've felt my heart breathe.

You make it seem as if I'm
for the very first time
like the very first time I've seen in colour.
You make it seem as if I'm
for the very first time
like the very first time I've felt my heart breathe.

I've seen in colour.
I've felt my heart breathe.
I've seen in colour.
