Standard tuning
Had my canvas primed in white, some water by my bed,
A wooden palette smeared with reds and grays and blues,
Dipped my brush into the paint, traced the outline of your face,
Then I washed it clean for color number two.
There s a little drop of paint in a mason jar of water,
That turned every last ounce a crimson hue,
And it s the same with you, you had a minute with my heart,
Now you color everything that I do.
Stew pot s on the boil, house was filled with steam,
Bowls and spoons in twos like Noah s ark,
Dash of salt and spice to make it like you like,
Bring it to my lips and there you are.
There s a little pinch of salt in a ladle full of comfort,
That opens all the flavors into bloom,
And it s the same with you, you had a minute with my heart,
And now you color everything that I do.
A flower turns its face to the sun,
Snow melting makes the river run,
Tide rises high to meet the moon, meet the moon.
(x2)
There s an echo in my ear sounding like your voice,
A feeling that fills any empty room,
You had a minute with my heart and I live it every day,
Cause when you brushed against my heart it soaked through,
And now my whole world is tinted with you,
Yeah, you color everything that I do.
*leading into the Chorus there s also a little bass note walk-up: / /
