Her eyes they shine like oil
On the roads when it rains
Watching the puddles
Going down the drain
A beauty that kind of bounded
My heart pounded when she spoke
Swayed like a ballerina
Disappeared like smoke
I don't take no wooden nickels
But it ain't that simple
Try catch yourself a lightnin' bolt
Buy a dashboard Jesus, you get a Holy Ghost
I don't take no wooden nickels
But it ain't that simple
I saw the moon place her rings
Silver onto each of her fingers
In my mind's eye that woman
Will always linger |
|
What it is, what it was, and what it
could be
Two hearts in love with being in love
Riding rainbows who knows how high above
I don't take no wooden nickels
But it ain't that simple
Try catch yourself a lightnin' bolt
Buy a dashboard jesus, you get a Holy Ghost
I don't take no wooden nickels
But it ain't that simple
And I spent night, night after sleepless night
Dreamin' in colour, not black and not white
Dreamin' in colour, it ain't wrong, it ain't right
Dreamin' in colour |
