Some of my favourite colours in the world
Beat against my eyelids with the blues of green hummingbirds
Some of my favourite colours in the world
Beat against my eyelids with the reds of pink hummingbirds
Blue Moon
So white
So scared
To come out tonight
It's too dark
For him
He's just a boy
With a man's grin
Crane and the swan
Wingspan across
Lake's silver light
The ivory night
Some of my favourite colours in the world
Beat against my eyelids with the blues of green hummingbirds
Some of my favourite colours in the world
Beat against my eyelids with the reds of pink hummingbirds
Godiva Girl
Swimming in chocolate
Winged foil heart cardinals
Oh but February stopped it
Red Bird
Scared white
She's just a girl
With a woman's smile
Crane and the swan
Wingspan across
Green apple bites
And Red Apple skies
Some of my favourite colours in the world
Beat against my eyelids with the blues of green hummingbirds
Some of my favourite colours in the world
Beat against my eyelids with the reds of pink hummingbirds
I want to be neat
I want to be clean
I want to be marvelous
Thank me
The colors of it
Some of my favourite colours in the world
Beat against my eyelids with the blues of green hummingbirds
Some of my favourite colours in the world
Beat against my eyelids with the reds of pink hummingbirds

Reminds me of Rosie Vela's great forgotten LP from the 80s ... forgotten or not, she seems to have been an influence on (or perhaps a precursor of) a lot of female singers that followed. | ||||||

| luminousjune (Chicago, IL) | Posted: May 03, 2006 - 14:11 I have always enjoyed this song...but for those who hold the opinion it doesn't seem "whole," I wouldn't argue. I first heard the song on a demo of about 4 songs back when I was music director for a station in Indiana. It was much more amazing live at CMJ in NYC...she fills the room with her voice & presence. | ||||||
