  • You say it's coming
    But I can't see it at all
    You know me well, but I don't know you at all
    No, I don't know you at all
    It's always just on the horizon
    So my hopes rise and fall
    You know me well, but I don't know you at all
    No, I don't know you at all

    Early '90s decor
    It was the day for
    We wanted to play
    But we had nothing left to play for
    Colourless color
    Once in fashion, soon to be scene
    Once in fashion, soon to be scene

    Been dreaming of blue skies
    New horizon and sides from my eyes
    The discovery of the unknown
    Is something to tell the folks back home
    I want to get away
    To feel the sun on my skin
    To feel it really
    Sinking in

    Early '90s decor
    It was the day for
    We wanted to play
    But we had nothing left to play for
    Colourless color
