[Verse 1] When you were young, you took my hand You knew the days were slipping fast With purple dusks, they stole away And took all we tried to grasp [Chorus] I will paint my love All the colors of the sky All the colors of the sky All the colors of the sky It's a white, white, wine I cry It's a white, white, wine I cry [Verse 2] A golden thread will trace my path As I look backwards on the crash And the pale blue light of the dust reborn Will signal out new life has come [Chorus] I will paint my love All the colors of the sky All the colors of the sky All the colors of the sky It's a white, white, wine I cry It's a white, white, wine I cry
