Tom Paxton - You Came Throwing Colors lyrics

You came throwing colours All around my blacks and greys While I stood in wonder you just opened up my days Let me tell you what you did to me I wanna shout the news You came throwing colours 'round my blues You came throwing colours 'round my blues Makes me wonder how I got The way I used to be Something in my head Just simply made a mess of me Then you told me love was possible And you told me I was free You came throwing colours 'round my blues You came throwing colours All around my blacks and greys While I stood in wonder you just opened up my days Let me tell you what you did to me I wanna shout the news You came throwing colours 'round my blues You came throwing colours 'round my blues Oh, I would sit for hours Never noticing the sky Chances came and went You know, I let them scurry by Then you told me love was possible You made me want to try You came throwing colours 'round my blues Oh, you came throwing colours All around my blacks and greys While I stood in wonder you just opened up my days Let me tell you what you did to me I wanna shout the news You came throwing colours 'round my blues You came throwing colours 'round my blues You came throwing colours 'round my blues You came throwing colours 'round my blues
