The Colors of My Life (Pt. II)

It's your own fault, Cherity Barnum
 If you'd only asked a few logical questions before you married him
 You would have put a healthy distance between yourself
 And a fella who wants to give the whole world a paint job
 Which I'm not so sure it needs!
 The colors of my life
 Are softer than a breeze
 The silver grey of eiderdown
 The dappled green of trees
 The amber of a wheatfield
 The hazel of a seed
 The crystal of a raindrop
 Are all I'll ever need
 Your reds are much too bold
 In gold I find no worth
 I'll fill my days with sage and brown
 The colors of the earth
 And if from by my side
 My love should roam
 The colors of my life
 Will shine a quiet light
 To lead him home
