Icehouse - Man Of Colours
There's A Noise Upstairs In The Attic
It's The Shuffle Of Worn Out Shoes
And The Scent Of The Oil And Brushes
Drifts Down Like A Pale Perfume
And He Says, "i...
I Am A Man,
A Simple Man,
...a Man Of Colours,
And I Can See
See Through The Years,
Years Of A Man,
...a Man Of Colours"
And The Old Man Rubs His Failing Eyes
And Takes A Moment To Watch The View
From A Window Nobody Knows Is There
He Can See The Empty Street Below
[chorus]
He Says, "i Keep My Life In This Paintbox
I Keep Your Face In These Picture Frames
And When I Speak To This Faded Canvas It Tells Me
I Have No Need For Words Anyway..."
[chorus]
And He Says, "i...
I Am A Man,
A Simple Man,
...a Man Of Colours,
And I Can See
See Through The Tears,
Tears Of A Man,
...a Man Of Colours"
