Watercolor

Watercolor
Music and Lyrics by Peter Link

Soft white cinnamon
Sufferin’ blue
You’re a strange design
You give me life and I give you you
And I’m lost in a watercolor

The water runs and the edges roll
And for that bittersweet second I lose control
Cinnamon crashes into sufferin’ blue
And I’m lost in a watercolor

Images and imaginings blending in a tango
Carrying me with them
Where I’ve never been before
Dancing across the paper
In a maddening fandango
Swirling through the universe
Like a thunderstorm

I am falling falling
Help me I’m falling
I’m lost in a watercolor
I am falling falling
Help me I’m falling
I’m lost in a watercolor
In this confusion of light and shade
I can’t find my way
Stumbling on though I’m unafraid
I am lost in a watercolor

This balance of chaos
Impossible yet
I’ll take the chances I take
And get what I can get
Smoke dreams fade into ivory jade
And I’m lost in a watercolor

Images and imaginings blending in a tango
Carrying me with them
Where I’ve never been before
Dancing across the paper
In a maddening fandango
Swirling through the universe
Like a thunderstorm

I am falling falling
Help me I’m falling
I’m lost in a watercolor
I am falling falling
Help me I’m falling
I’m lost in a watercolor
