Colours
Christopher feat. Frida Amundsen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I remember, looking out of my window
I kept staring, at a thousand shades of grey
I remember, back when I was flying solo
There was a black cloud I just couldn't blow away

It was a black and white movie where I played the part
Of the broken guy hopelessly left in the dark
I thought I was broken till you came to me
You opened my eyes, now I see

All the colours, when you're around
Oh the colours, when I see your smile
It's like fireworks in the night
A million butterflies in the sky
Oh the colours, oh the colours

When you're with me, we're not painting by numbers
We're like graffiti on the empty concrete walls
When you're with me, it's like everyday is summer
Your lovin' hits me, like a heatwave in July

You are the red to my heart and the blue in my eyes
The bright yellow sun that is casting its shine
The greener the grass, the better the high
Oh now I see

All the colours, when you're around
Oh the colours, when I see your smile
It's like fireworks in the night
A million butterflies in the sky
Oh the colours, oh the colours

Oh baby, can't you see
You mean the world to me
There is no other place
I'd rather be

All the colours, when you're around
Oh the colours, when I see your smile
It's like fireworks in the night
A million butterflies in the sky
Oh the colours, oh the colours

All the colours, when you're around
Oh the colours, when I see your smile
It's like fireworks in the night




A million butterflies in the sky
Oh the colours, oh the colours

Line by Line Meaning

I remember, looking out of my window
I recalled gazing outside my windowpane


I kept staring, at a thousand shades of grey
I continued to gaze, all I could see was many dull hues


I remember, back when I was flying solo
I reminded myself of a period when I was alone


There was a black cloud I just couldn't blow away
There was a murky cloud of sadness that lingered


It was a black and white movie where I played the part
It was like a monochrome film where I was the character


Of the broken guy hopelessly left in the dark
The singer was a heartbroken and abandoned individual stuck in gloom


I thought I was broken till you came to me
I believed my heart wasn't well until you showed up


You opened my eyes, now I see
You enlightened me, and now I have clarity


All the colours, when you're around
Your presence brings vibrancy and liveliness everywhere


Oh the colours, when I see your smile
Your cheerful face brings exuberance and energy


It's like fireworks in the night
It resembles an impressive display of colourful pyrotechnics


A million butterflies in the sky
Countless colourful butterflies are fluttering in the air


When you're with me, we're not painting by numbers
Our life together is spontaneous and unscripted


We're like graffiti on the empty concrete walls
We leave a vibrant, artistic impression wherever we go


When you're with me, it's like everyday is summer
Your affection makes every day feel like a sunny, carefree summer day


Your lovin' hits me, like a heatwave in July
Your love gives me a warm and intense feeling enveloping me entirely


You are the red to my heart and the blue in my eyes
You are the love within me and the essence of joy in my life


The bright yellow sun that is casting its shine
You are the shining source of optimism and positivity in my life


The greener the grass, the better the high
The happier I am and love shines brighter with you around


Oh baby, can't you see
Oh darling, please understand


You mean the world to me
You are everything to me


There is no other place
There's nowhere else


I'd rather be
I'd prefer to be
