Damien Rice - Colour Me In Lyrics






I tried to repress it
Then I carried its crown
I reached out to undress it
And love let me down
Love let me down…

So I tried to erase it
But the ink bled right through
Almost drove myself crazy
When these words led to you

And all these useless dreams of living alone
Like a dogless bone…

So come let me love you
Come let me love you
And then… colour me in

Well I tried to control it
And cover it up
I reached out to console it
It was never enough
Never enough…

So I tried to forget it
That was all part of the show
Told myself I'd regret it
But what do I know

About all these useless dreams of living alone
Like a dogless bone…

So come let me love you
Come let me love you
And then… colour me in

Come let me love you
Come let me take this through the end
Of all these useless dreams of living
In all these useless dreams
All these useless dreams of living
In all these old noes

Come let me love you
Come let me love you
Come let me love you
Come let me…

    Love let me down
    So I tried to erase it, but the ink bled right through
    Almost drove myself crazy when these words led to you
    And all these useless dreams of living alone
    Like a dogless bone
    So come let me love you
    Come let me love you and then color me in
    Well, I tried to control it and cover it up
    I reached out to console it
    It was never enough, never enough
    So I tried to forget it, that was all part of the show
    Told myself I'd regret it, but what do I know
    About all these useless dreams of living alone
    Like a dogless bone
    So come let me love you
    Come let me love you and then color me in
    Come let me love you
    Come let me take this through the end
    Of all these useless dreams of living in all these useless dreams
    All these useless dreams of living in all these old noes
    Come let me love you
    Come let me love you
    Come let me love you
    Come let me

    I eventually came back here again as summer passed by and the following wind is blowing into space around my body. October 5th 2019.

  28. G.... B....

    This is perfect in every way.

  29. D.... S....

    He sings from the heart with such soul . Beautiful!

  30. F.... O....

    Its 01.41 am, and this song just speaks to me. Lonely but happy. And that's okey, at least tonight.

  31. D.... D....

    I am sorry about all you have been through, but Happy that you chose to channel it into these musical masterpieces

  32. S.... M....

    Its weird, I've listened to this song for years but never really got it until he left me, also never cried so hard listening to it..

  33. �.... ....

    Damn it Damien. this is it.. most beautiful melancholy ever

  34. �.... [....

    but what do I know
    about all these useless dreams

  35. A.... ....

    Raku Game Station.

  36. M.... C....

    I love his voice 💗

  37. D.... J....

    I wonder if he realises just how beautiful and pure this song is? Every listen brings a stillness to my heart, my soul listens to every note and word and the pain is real, like I feel his heartache. 💔 Bless his beautiful heart....

  38. S.... V....

    I love the lyrics of this song and the atmosphere

  39. S.... ....

    One of the best experiences in my life was his concert in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Just Damien, a guitar, a piano and immense talent on the stage. I cried, and I laughed and I will always remember the feelings he made me feel. Always favorite.

  40. T.... S....

    Nobody I know actually likes Damien rice and I'm living in Ireland. How can they not hear the genius in this music.

    Love let me down

    Of all these useless dreams of living in all these useless dreams
    All these useless dreams of living in all these old noes
    Come let me love you
    Come let me love you
    Come let me love you

    The moment I found out my ex boyfriend and I shared our passion for Damien Rice something deep inside me told me he was the one I had been always looking for.
    I remember one day after arguing with him this song sound. We hugged each other, forgave us and wished that moment would never had ended.
    Now I just keep these moments with him in my memory like an old movie where the soundtrack is always Damien Rice.
    Thank you for all that

    It was a fall rainy night and I was on my way home driving on the New Jersey turnpike and I remember taking a deep breath because I was full of emotions over loosing my best friend.. and in letting go let out my breath of what was us.. My finger started to push on the radio dial and out of the static I heard this song for the first time.. I pulled over.. could barely see out of my window.. It went silent and all I heard was this song.. It coloured me in.. It was so moving.. I grabbed my phone to record a bit of it.. soon after sent it to her to listen to along with a few words of my own... Today I can hold her close to me because I can love her deeply.. Cherish her... We can be Men and still love our Lady's.. Be inspired by her!!! Keep her close!!! She's all you need.. Thank you for sharing your soul!!!

  80. B.... D....

    ı try to forget it....

  81. A.... M....

    mottitt elsoatt

  82. D.... C....

    I don't think it gets any better than a musician and their guitar. Damien is that and I'm glad I've been lucky enough to listen to him for so many years. He is simply God's gift to all true musicians out there.

  83. V.... G....

    Magnífico!

  84. C.... S....

    Este tipo es un monstruo de la interpretación, ojalá volviera a Colombia.
