Yesterday I was a young boy
Searching for my way
Not knowing what I wanted
Living life from day to day

'Till you came along
There was nothing but an empty space and a pain

Feels like Coloured Rain
Tastes like Coloured Rain
Bring on Coloured RainYeah!

I can see a sail of changing
Filling with surprise
United with a feeling
Bringing love into my eyes

Till you came along there was nothing but an empty space and a pain
