Lyrics
The show is over, close the storybook
There will be no encore
And all the random hands that I have shook
Well, they're reaching for the door
I watch the backs as they leave single-file
You stood stubborn, cheering all the while
I know I can be colorful
I know I can be grey
And I know this loser's living fortunate
'Cause I know you will love me either way
Most were being good for goodness sake
But you wouldn't pantomine
You are more beautiful when you awake
Than most are in a lifetime
Through the haze that is my memory
You stayed for drama though you paid for a comedy
I know I can be colorful
I know I can be grey
And I know this loser's living fortunate
I know you will love me either way
Look ahead as far as you can see
We live in drama, but we'll die in a comedy
I know I can be colorful (when you live in black and white)
I know I can be grey (my colors fade away)
And I know this loser's living fortunate
I know you will love me either way
I know I can be colorful (when you live in black and white)
I know I can be grey (my colors fade away)
And I know this loser's living fortunate
And I know you will love me
Yes, I know you will love me
I know you will love me either way
