Monochrome

Somewhere he's under your skin
And somehow I'm letting him win
She was the one to try to drag me down
And you were the one to try to give me wings to lift my feet right off the ground

I'm sending flowers to relatives I barely knew
Searching for colour, but all I find is you
But that's okay
Cos all I really wanted was a lighter shade of grey

Someday he'll love you like I do
And someday, when my wildest dreams come true
We'll be the ones to take over the world
And we'll be the ones to make it happen
And just sit back and watch it all unfold

I'm sending flowers to relatives I barely knew
Searching for colour, but all I find is you
But that's okay
Cos all I really wanted was a lighter shade of grey
I let you in and I can't believe I let you go
I always seem to express myself in semitones
But that's alright
Because it seems you had it coloured to my monochrome life

He'll love you like I do
She was the one to

I'm sending flowers to relatives I barely knew
Searching for colour, but all I find is you
But that's okay
Cos all I really wanted was a lighter shade of grey
I let you in and I can't believe I let you go
I always seem to express myself in semitones
But that's alright
Because it seems you had it coloured to my monochrome life
