Cy Coleman - The Colors of My Life (Barnum) lyrics

The colors of my life, are bountiful and bold The purple glow of indigo, the gleam of green and gold The splendor of a sunrise, the dazzle of a flame The glory of a rainbow, I put 'em all to shame No quiet browns or grays, I'll take my days instead And fill them 'til they overflow, with rose and cherry red And should this sunlit world, grow dark one day The colors of my life will leave a shining light to show the way The colors of my life, are softer than a breeze The silver gray of [Incomprehensible] the dappled green of trees Amber of a wheat field, hazel of a seed Crystal of a raindrop are all I'll ever need Your reds are much too bold, in gold I find no worth I fill my days with [Incomprehensible] brown, the colors of the earth And if from by my side my love should roam The colors of my life will shine a quiet light to lead her home
