Ice Cream Colours - Corinne Bailey Rae

Dancing at your apartment

Under electric lights

Sneaking out of this party

Running into the night

The sky is all crystal

We’re animate we’re intimate we’re wild

And right at this moment

I can see the past and future in your eyes

Oh why?

Anytime I feel this rush

I’m overwhelmed

It’s chemical

I don’t know why

I don’t know why

You make me dream in ice cream colours

Crystal waves

Through my brain

I don’t know why

I don’t know why

Lying out in the sunlight

Swimming in golden rays

Our days go by so slowly

But the nights spin fast

My senses ablaze

I’m making a collage

I’m taken with the possibilities

You pull me in closer

And happiness is burning like a neon dream

Oh why?

Anytime I feel this rush

I’m overwhelmed

It’s chemical

I don’t know why

I don’t know why

You make me dream in ice cream colours

Crystal waves

Through my brain

I don’t know why

I don’t know why

The distance I’ve traveled

The distance is immeasurable in time

But none of that matters

When I can see the past and future

In your eyes, oh why?

Anytime I feel this rush

I’m overwhelmed

It’s chemical

I don’t know why

I don’t know why

You make me dream in ice cream colours

Crystal waves

Through my brain

I don’t know why

I don’t know why
