The Colours of the Night

If I say goodbye, will you call me?

If I let you go, will you miss me?

And the colours of the night…

V1

So you want to take me out

To go dancing?

You want to take me out

For romancing?

Yes, I’ll let you take me out

So we can step into the light and try to find the colours of the night.

V2

Will I let you take my hand

While we’re dancing

Will I let you come in close

While we’re romancing?

Your arm is round my waist

And we can dance the night away and gently sway to the colours of the night

Chorus

Every time I give myself away,

Even though you play my heart, I hope you’ll stay,

And we would paint the dull grey day with the colours of the night.
 

V3

And if I let you walk me home

Will you charm me?

If I let you come inside

Don’t disarm me

Should I let you stay the night?

So you can hold me oh so tightly and then delight me with the colours of the night

 

Chorus

Every time I give myself away,

Even though you play my heart, I hope you’ll stay,

And we could paint the dull grey day with the colours of the night.

M8 – full verse instrumental break

V4

And in the morning light

You’re breathing slowly

The night has gone away

I’m feeling lonely

No more colours of the night

I’m grey, I’m fading

Just give me back the night’s

Soft serenading

Will someone take me out

To go dancing?

Can someone take me out

So I can dance the night away and gently sway to the colours of the night

Outro – part of M8

Oh the colours of the night x 2
