Week 10: Colourful Dress | Brenda Rose

Week 10: Colourful Dress  | Brenda Rose

Do you remember

The times that we dreamed together

About London and America

And every far place we could think of

We wanted to leave 

And now I see we wanted to flee

Escape to every place that wasn't real

Escape to every place that wasn't here

Black was the colour we'd sent

A little red to show the restless mind

And every colourless shirt we wore

A reflection

Since that period of time

Our lives became a little calmer

And then you turned into a butterfly

And sing songs about floating through the sky

You've showed us the colour of your heart

And I thank you for that 

And every colourful dress you wear

A reflection

On this special day

I wish you yellow no more grey

I wish you soft pink and some apple green

A little vintage orange and baby blue

And for that restless mind

A little light through some plain white

And every colourful dress to be

A reflection
