Colour Me In Lyrics - My Favourite Faded Fantasy - Damien Rice

i tried to repress it 

then i carried its crown 

i reached out to undress it 

but love let me down 

love let me down... 

so i tried to erase it 

but the ink bled right through 

almost drove myself crazy 

when these words led to you 

and all these useless dreams 

of living alone 

like a dogless bone... 

so come let me love you 

come let me love you 

and then... colour me in. 

well i tried to control it 

and cover it up 

i reached out to console it 

but it was never enough 

never enough... 

so i tried to forget it 

that was all part of the show 

told myself I'd regret it 

but what do I know 

about all these useless dreams 

of living alone 

like a dogless bone... 

so come let me love you 

come let me love you 

and then... colour me in. 

so come let me love you 

come let me take this through the end 

of all these useless dreams of living 

in all these useless dreams... 

of all these useless dreams of living 

in all these old noes... 

so come let me love you... 

come let me love you... 

come let me love you...
