Lyrics

"THE COLOR OF YOU"
Words and Music by Richard Turner & Hillary Bernstein

Days grow short marking autumn's arrival,
Are you here with me?
Leaves all change, a chameleon of colors,
I need you now with me
The sands of time will be washed away
But the castles they made not forgotten,
A mark has stayed, the world somehow changed,
An impression to last for all time

CHORUS
Through the change, there's a thread that remains
Interweaving the lives of the present and past,
And though I won't see you as you used to be,
The whole world will be cast with a glow...
In the color of you


Skies are gray, looming dismal and daunting,
Where are you today?
The clouds, they threaten to pour down upon us,
Shelter me today
In the drops of rain, there's an old refrain,
That the heavens have played for all time
It draws me in and reminds me again
That we're part of a greater design

CHORUS
And through the rains, there's a cloud that remains
And surrounding it glows a silver lining,
It's then I'm convinced you will always exist,
And it's there that I see the world's lit...
By the color of you.

BRIDGE
Every time the wind takes my breath,
Leaving me without a word to say
I see a glow in someone's eye,
Or hear a newborn baby cry...
It fills me with the sense...that I'm in your presence

REPEAT CHORUSES
I can feel that the world is on fire...with the color of you
