COLORS FLY
lyrics: J. Morse © 1985
As your eyes deceive you once again
You strike a chord of recognition
And though you've seen me once before
It was only precognition
And superstition never holds
Before the spying eye of science
And if you've seen me on the screen
It was only for my clients
Cause colors fly and people cry
And faces flash a smile when I appear
Though you've seen me, you still can't see
Those things that only I can hear
Your eyes are honest to you now
But do you see the same things as before?
Though you've seen me now many times
You hide behind the door
From more of those same premonitions
That strike like light from empty skies
And show you a face, familiar now
That's incapable of smiles, only forlorn cries
Cause colors fly and people cry
And memories fade when I disappear
Though you've seen me, you just don't recall
I'm gone. . . but never fear
