Colour and Shape lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down here in New Orleans, prayin' for holy water
To rain on down, rain on down on me
I got to tell you how I feel
And I don't care as long as it's a side that's real

[Chorus]
Like a dark cloud that casts no shade
Seven days pass I still pray for rain
I want to see things my way;
I will add colour and the shape

[Verse 2]
Now I'm frozen in time, bound by convictions
Obey the trust - things I learned long ago
Please now spare me, spare me your old folklore
All I really want are things they were before

[Chorus]
Like a dark cloud that casts no shade
Seven days pass I still pray for rain
I want to see things my way;
I will add the colour and the shape

[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Like a dark cloud that casts no shade
Seven days pass I still pray for rain, for rain
I want to see things my way;
I will be who I am and see things my way; yeah eah
I will add the colour and the shape

[Instrumental Outro]
