Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I tried to repress it then I carried its crown

I reached out to undress it but love let me down

Love let me down

[Verse 2]

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 dog-less bone

[Verse 3]

So come let me love you

Come let me love you

And then

Colour me in

[Verse 4]

Well, I tried to control it and cover it up

I reached out to console it but it was never enough

Never enough

[Verse 5]

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 dog-less bone

[Verse 6]

So come let me love you

Come let me love you

And then

Colour me in

[Verse 7]

Come let me love you

Come let me take this through the end

Of all these useless dreams of never

All these useless dreams

All these useless dreams of never

All these old no's

[Verse 8]

Come let me love you

Come let me love you

Come let me love you

Come let me love

[Verse 9]

Oh, oh, whoa

Oh, oh
