If I were a coloring book, you'd be the one who found me on the back shelf
You'd flip my pages wondering why no one else had tried me out by now
I know you see, you read between these lines so easily, so don't just leave
Colour me in, and start with my heart beat
Then breathe in, and fill out these lungs with the air you breathe
Won't you colour me?
Now I'm just a little nervous as you're dusting off my surface with your sleeve
'Cause I've been closed, so unexposed, and there's a chance you might not like what's underneath
But I know you see, you read between these lines so easily, so don't just leave
Colour me in, and start with my heart beat
Then breathe in, and fill out these lungs with the air you breathe
Won't you colour me?
I've found you're quite the illustrator now that I'm at your fingertips
Together we could illustrate my heart, and lonely lips
Colour me in, and start with my heart beat
Then breathe in, and fill out these lungs with the air you breathe
Won't you colour me?
