When you were young, you took my hand
You knew the days were slipping fast
With purple dusks, they stole away
And took all we tried to grasp

I will paint my love
All the colors of the sky
All the colors of the sky
All the colors of the sky
It’s a white, white, wine I cry
It’s a white, white, wine I cry

A golden thread will trace my path
As I look backwards on the crash
And the pale blue light of the dust reborn
Will signal out new life has come

I will paint my love
All the colors of the sky
All the colors of the sky
All the colors of the sky
It’s a white, white, wine I cry
It’s a white, white, wine I cry
