Axis: Bold As Love Lyrics - How Sweet It Is - Joan Osborne

Axis: Bold As Love 

Written by Jimi Hendrix 

Anger, he smiles, 

towering in shiny metallic purple armour 

Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him 

Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground 

Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted, 

They quietly understand 

Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready, 

But wonder why the fight is on

But they're bold as love, just as bold as love 

Yeah, they're bold as love 

Just ask the axis

My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war, 

and ribbons of euphoria 

Orange is young and full of daring, 

But very unsteady for the first go round 

My yellow in this case is not so mellow 

In fact I'm trying to say it's frigthened like me 

And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from 

Giving my life to a rainbow like you 

I'm as bold as love, I'm as bold as love 

Just as bold as love 

Just ask the axis
