lyrics

PURPLE AND GREEN

Purple and Green can make a lively wonder
Purple and Green can make a young mind wander
Purple and Green can make a lively wonder
When ripples and beams start to swirl from under

That's when the torch is out and you're down
And your parents aren't with you
‘Cause they're underground
And it's hard to face the facts
That ya calendar is tearing and your strings are ripping fast in:

Purple and Green where every mind can wander
Forever it seems, it surely makes you wonder
Purple and Green, it surely makes you wonder
When you're down and out and alone,
Sitting by a pool side
And ya wanna drown, but you don't
'Cause the colors are so perfect
They make you laugh and there is no doubt

Looking deep you'll spot a cloudy shape to call your own
And when it fades from sight be sure you'll never trade that moment
for a glimpse, of what your life would be without...

Purple and Green where every mind can wander
Prophetic It seems, it surely makes you wonder
Yeah Purple and Green
Can make a young mind wonder

Purple and Green can surely make you wonder
Can surely make you wonder...
Ohh, can surely make me wonder

PURPLE AND GREEN !
