Colours In My Mind

Colours In My Mind I looked up to the sky then at the world And saw it painted yellow The sun shone brightly as the clouds sped past My mind began to mellow I could feel warm heat shining on my brow And my mind felt fuller than it did just now Then I smiled and felt good 'cause I'm alive I'm such a lucky fellow Painting rainbows..... in my colourful new world Painting rainbows in my mind (in my mind) Painting rainbows..... in my colourful new world Painting rainbows in my mind (in my mind) I looked at the stream as it flowed on by And I saw it painted blue The cool tones rippled like morning dew Then in my mind I saw you You looked so pretty as you stood and smiled And I hoped real hard that you'd stay a while Then the water flowed on and you were gone I was alone with the view Colours.....

Painting rainbows..... in my colourful new world Painting rainbows in my mind (in my mind) Painting rainbows..... in my colourful new world Painting rainbows in my mind (in my mind) I looked at the ground underneath my feet And I saw it painted green The grass was moving in the gentle breeze Then my mind saw the unseen The flow of your hair as you tossed your head The feel of your body laid on our bed Then the wind blew hard and the grass moved more I felt sad it was a dream Painting rainbows..... in my colourful new world Painting rainbows in my mind (in my mind) Painting rainbows..... in my colourful new world Painting rainbows in my mind (in my mind) Jane Shields (C)
