Polished out and faded to gray
Color comes and goes and ebbs and flows
A little less vivid each time
Wound away some time
Lookin' in your eyes
Smiled at every smile
It seemed a loss
Seemed a loss
An orange glow grows on all day
Some blues and browns with ups and downs
It may just be a game
Coiled up and cold
Risked it and sweated it
I shed another cell
Both ends burnin' well
Burnin' well
The colors came through not blind but true
Then did a fade as the music played
Rode out the hour
Watchin' for anything
Not really believin'
It seemed a loss
