Colour Lyrics

Thought that's how the world would be for me
I never knew what it was gonna take
Made some monumental mistakes
And saw the blue skies wash away

I was so lost, save me at all costs
When I need you baby, when I need you
When the lights off, I feel the rain fall
That's when I see you, that's when I see you

[Chorus]
Colour- la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
It lived inside of my heart
You bought it back with your love
Colour- la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
When it was all black and white
You made everything right
You make it right right right right

I forgot who I was supposed to be
Reminded me of a hope again, you made me dream
Red, orange, yellow, blue, indigo, violet, green
You're the start and the end of my rainbow

I was so lost, save me at all costs
When I need you baby, when I need you
When the lights off, I feel the rain fall
That's when I see you, that's when I see you

[Chorus]

If the rain falls hard, I know where you are
I know where you are if the rain falls
If the rain falls hard, I know where you are
I know where you are if the rain falls

[Chorus]

I know where you are if the rain falls
If the rain falls hard, I know where you are
I know where you are if the rain falls

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
