The Colour of the Rain - 21 Love Hotel

You never know just what you've got Till it's slipping through your fingers Never know just what you've got Till it's gone with the wind And you never miss your shadow Till there's no one left beside you You never miss your shadow Till you're alone, alone in the dark You never know just what will break you Till you're picking up the pieces Never know just what will break you Till your world, it falls apart Never know how small your voice is Till you're screaming at the silence Never know how small your voice is Till you're arguing, arguing with God But I saw Death's face today As he led my friend away I saw Death's face today As he cast his shadow over me I saw Death's face today As he led my friend away So I'll ask who I gotta pay To bring him back, bring him back to me Bring him back to me You never know the words you should've said until they're all you're left with Until the dirt is falling and the guilt, it burns your bones And we ask the biggest question: why the fuck did this all happen? Who on Earth deserves this? And what the hell do we do now? So we live like we have lost, and we love like we are broken And as the colour leaves the sky, we're left in reverence of the frailty of it all

Ooh, ooh, ooh If I had to paint a picture To show the world how true love can really be I would use the brightest colours To create a vision of harmony It would be a reality 'Cause it's only what's inside of my heart You would see I've always loved you Right from the very start Tell me what is the colour of love? What do you see? Is it warm, is it tender When you think of me I'll see the colour of love When I'm thinking of you As a picture perfect painting Of a love forever true The colours of the rainbow turn grey Whenever you're so far away It changes like the seasons You're the reason it happens that way What you see are colours of emotion Reflecting what I feel deep inside Now I'd like to take a look At emotions that you hide Tell me what is the colour of love? What do you see? Is it warm, is it tender When you think of me I'll see the colour of love When I'm thinking of you As a picture perfect painting Of a love forever true And, oh, though many may try To keep us apart Oh, the colours that I see in you Will shine a light to see us through No matter what the world will do I'll always love you Oh, what is the colour of love? What do you see? Is it warm, is it tender When you think of me I'll see the colour of love When I'm thinking of you As a picture perfect painting Of love forever true What is the colour of love Oh, tell me, tell me Oh, I wanna know, I wanna know (I see the colour of love) When I'm thinking of you As a picture perfect painting Of love forever true

Whomever wants you alone Whomever wants you, atones It's with this rare, I've sewn Whomever wants you alone (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray A vast amount of the time slipped away A vast amount of the time slipped away I gave you all, always have (and always) I gave you all, as all was asked (as always) As pieces of gain fall from grasp Whomever asks for more than that? A camp beholds me (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray A vast amount of the time slipped away A vast amount of the time slipped away (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray (Color of your love) And the color of your love is gray A vast amount of the time slipped away

We'll make loneliness into love when we're bored And find the right emotional principle to cut like a sword Over the words of a past me whispering Love was the destination but we would settle for some sympathy Turning myself into my own lord and then finding my own spinal chord It's finally safe to throw our bones back into the sea So we can forget what it means to have bodies When pursuing sanity just feels like some sort of couples therapy For these dual personalities bleeding into my psyche Just questioning the answers I give to those I see And I was taught to never let someone take parts away from who I am But there are parts that sometimes make me wanna hurt myself So what am I supposed to do with them? Your heart is on fire when you water down your words You started much higher before you found the lord And you justify the way you hate yourself with forgiveness Objects of obsession in constant repetition This cycle where we try to find reasons that we're living I'm a product of the products I let into my heart before I loved you Ashes look the same whether they are your lover or an object that you would rather face than dealing with your pain Or the emotional strain that comes with tearing open the seams Passionately neglecting anything but the emotional string We transform from being two souls searching for love in a bad dream to just two strangers with shared memories And sometimes I found stability while you kissed your soul goodbye I know a song won't do justice but it's all I have so I'll try Your heart is on fire when you water down your words You started much higher before you found the lord And you justify the way you hate yourself with forgiveness Objects of obsession in constant repetition This cycle where we try to find reasons that we're living I'm a product of the products I let into my heart before I loved you Take two years from my life and a couple from each friend We'll collect another thirty years and bring you back from the dead Take two years from my life and a couple from each friend We'll collect another thirty years and bring you back from the dead Take two years from my life and a couple from each friend We'll collect another thirty years and bring you back from the dead Take two years from my life and a couple from each friend We'll bring you back from the dead, you could see me again You could see me again And since you left you hardly ever come up And I'll tell you there's a part that I will never give up You tell yourself now that I could never find out Why you never found me when love was such a vacant dream we'd scream Never let someone take parts away from who I am But there are parts that sometimes make me wanna hurt myself So what am I supposed to do with them?

The pain of love won't break us up We don't need your salvation The pain of love will never stop We are our own creation The pain of love lives in our hearts It's deeper than the ocean The pain of love waits in the dark We take it in slow motion And we go on And we go on And on, and on, and on We don't belong We don't belong Belong to anyone The pain of love will last forever Promise me, promise me We'll celebrate the pain together The pain of love, love, love The pain of love in all of us It hits you like a hammer The pain of love we can't turn off Let's celebrate the drama The pain of love Don't let us crush We will be all forgiven The pain of love I want to touch Without it's not worth living And we go on And we go on And on, and on, and on We don't belong We don't belong Belong to anyone The pain of love will last forever Promise me, promise me We'll celebrate the pain together The pain of love, love, love We climb the mountains Walk the deserts For our love Let's make a pact tonight So we can feel this pain of love forever And we go on And we go on And on, and on, and on We don't belong We don't belong Belong, belong to anyone And we go on And we go on And on, and on, and on We don't belong We don't belong Belong to anyone The pain of love will last forever Promise me, promise me We'll celebrate the pain of love together The pain of love, love, love The pain of love The pain of love The pain of love

I hold your letter in my frozen hand The last line was long, as long as it burns, my look carries on With every word, another feeling dies I'm left here in the dark, no memories of you I close my eyes It's killing me We die when love is dead It's killing me We lost a dream we never had The world in silence should forever feel alone Cause we are gone and we will never overcome It's over now Vultures are waiting for what's left of us What can we take? It all has no worth if we lose our trust They're coming closer, want me and you I can feel their claws Let me go now, try to break free It's killing me We die when love is dead It's killing me We lost a dream we never had The world in silence should forever feel alone Cause we are gone and we will never overcome It's over now, now, now It's over now, now, now It's over now It's over now It's over now Vultures are waiting for what's left of us Taking the last of you and the last of me It's killing me We die when love is dead It's killing me We lost a dream we never had The world in silence should forever feel alone Cause we are gone and we will never overcome It's over now, now, now It's over now, now, now It's over now It's over now
