Hey, coloured kisses The red, blue, yellow, green Black and white are the colours you liked Red, the fire that burns my heart When you're near, it wraps me up Now, I find the space to feel good Like the water it fills me with peace When you near me again I still breathe within Now that you're at my side Your soul in mine But I long for your touch It's hurting so much You give me, give me coloured kisses Coloured kisses for my lips to taste You lead me, lead me to an oasis An oasis where I can lay My head on your shoulder and pray What else can I do? 'Cause all I want is more and more Coloured kisses from you Coloured kisses Yellow is the sun that shines on me Like your smile it sets me free Seasons change to blacken my mood When I falter my heart goes astray I remember the nights when you'd take me away Because when I'm at your arm I'm safe and warm But I'm never alone Because my heart is your home You give me, give me coloured kisses Coloured kisses for my lips to taste You lead me, lead me to an oasis An oasis where I can lay My head on your shoulder and pray And that no one can take me from you And no one can break us in two So lift it up in the clouds set me free And let your rainbow all out shine on me Coloured kisses Coloured kisses That's right Come back, come back, come back You, you give me Coloured, coloured kisses for my lips to taste You lead me, lead me to an oasis An oasis where I can lay My head on your shoulder and pray What else can I do? You give me, give me coloured kisses Coloured kisses to taste You lead me, lead me to an oasis An oasis where I can lay My head on your shoulder and pray What else can I do?
