Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I had to paint a picture
To show the world how true love can really be
I would use the brightest colors
To create a vision of harmony
[Verse 2]
It would be a reality
'Cause it's only what's inside of my heart
You would see I've always loved you
Right from the very start
[Verse 3]
Tell me what is the color of love, what do you see?
Is it warm, is it tender when you think of me?
I see the color of love when I'm thinking of you
As a picture perfect painting of a love forever true
[Verse 4]
The colors of the rainbow
Turn gray whenever you're so far away
It changes like the seasons
You're the reason it happens that way
[Verse 5]
What you see are colors of emotion
Reflecting what I feel deep inside
Now I'd like to take a look
At emotions that you hide
[Verse 6]
Tell me what is the color of love, what do you see?
Is it warm, is it tender when you think of me?
I see the color of love when I'm thinking of you
As a picture perfect painting of a love forever true
[Verse 7]
And, oh, though many may try to keep us apart
Oh, the colors that I see in you
Will shine a light to see us through
No matter what the world will do, I'll always love you
[Verse 8]
Oh, what is the color of love, what do you see?
Is it warm, is it tender when you think of me?
I see the color of love when I'm thinking of you
As a picture perfect painting of a love forever true
[Verse 9]
What is the color of love? Oh, tell me, tell me
Oh, I wanna know, hey, I wanna know
I see the color of love when thinking of you
As a picture perfect painting of a love forever true
