Colorblind

(album: Livin' Like A Lonestar - 2006)

I've been tossing and turning all night
But I can sleep a wink with you on my mind
I'd like to think in time I'll be ok
I'd like to catch a breeze and just sail away

Loneliness is a simple point of view
I gotta find a way to change that too
To forget about you

I wanna be colorblind
Then I would never think about your soft green eyes
Sweet blond hair would never cross my mind
There be no black gown you'd slip in to at night
Maybe I'd forget about your warm brown skin
Stop dreaming about the taste of salty red lips
I wouldn't be hurting now and missing you
I wouldn't know a single thing about you

Like wild flowers love is a pretty sight
But underneath the petals theres a thorn sometimes
And girl you're a pistol when you make up your mind
Theres no use thinking you'll come back this time

And in the closet theres a few things you left
A purple neglijet and yellow cotton dress
My mind is such a mess

I wanna be colorblind
Then I would never think about your soft green eyes
Sweet blond hair would never cross my mind
There be no black gown you'd slip in to at night
Maybe I'd forget about your warm brown skin
Stop dreaming about the taste of salty red lips
I wouldn't be hurting now and missing you
I wouldn't know a single thing about you

Maybe I'd forget about your warm brown skin
Stop dreaming about the taste of salty red lips
I wouldn't be hurting now and missing you
I wouldn't know a single thing blue
