Of Many Colors

(álbum: Alela Diane & Wild Divine - 2011)

Indigo is blue like the you of me or you
Ebony is darker than the deepest
Emerald like the water we swam in for a while
To a man of many colors I give word

He's a charmer, my man of many colors
He sings till hours take him well past midnight
His indigo in evening skies, ebony on moonless night
But he's emerald, come the morning through the window, ooh

Indigo is blue like the you of me or you
Ebony is darker than the deepest
Emerald like the water we swam in for a while
To a man of many colors I give word

Amidst the gold there is dust in every heart
And in the blue there is a web of tangled thoughts
Oh, how the crystals mix with shards of broken glass
We tried to take the danger from the plight of crimson red
But all left stare me blindly through the colors and the fog

Indigo is blue like the you of me or you
Ebony is darker than the deepest
Emerald like the water we swam in for a while
To a man of many colors I gave word

By the light of a match, I caught the colors in my hand
And the sun threw this old stone
It is red on jam, amber, blue and violet
Like graffiti, scattered leaves dropped the cold mat, ooh

Indigo is blue like the you of me or you
Ebony is darker than the deepest
Emerald like the water we swam in for a while
To a man of many colors I gave word

To a man of many colors I gave word
To a man of many colors I gave word
