La Roux - Colourless Colour Lyrics

Artist: La Roux

Album: La Roux

Genre: Pop

  • Songwriters: Ben Hirst, Elly Jackson

You say it's coming but I can't see it at all
You know me well but I don't know you at all
No, I don't know you at all

It's always just on the horizon so my hopes rise and fall
You know me well but I don't know you at all
No, I don't know you at all

Early nineties decor, it was a day for
We wanted to play but we had nothing left to play for
Colorless color once in fashion and soon to be seen

Early nineties decor, it was a day for
We wanted to play but we had nothing left to play for
Colorless color once in fashion and soon to be seen

Been dreaming of blue skies, new horizons and sights for my eyes
The discovery of the unknown is something to tell the folks back home
I wanna get away to feel the sun on my skin, to feel it really sinking in

Early nineties decor, it was a day for
We wanted to play but we had nothing left to play for
Colorless color once in fashion and soon to be seen

Early nineties decor, it was a day for
We wanted to play but we had nothing left to play for
Colorless color once in fashion and soon to be seen

Early nineties decor, it was a day for
We wanted to play but we had nothing left to play for
Colorless color once in fashion and soon to be seen

Early nineties decor, it was a day for
We wanted to play but we had nothing left to play for
Colorless color once in fashion and soon to be rediscovered

    love this song and la roux! we need some synth pop dance alternative today! we can't let the 80's have all of the good synth ;-)

    she's talking about their sound and prospects as making it in the music business. early nineties synthpop depeche mode sound, and people telling them they're gonna be big, but she doesn't know. i think colourless color is in reference to them making music that will largely go unnoticed in today's musical landscape.

    So cool indeed. The lyrics are a bit different than what you can find on other sites.
    Any idea what she means by colourless colour?
