EHad my canvas primed in white, some wBater by my bed, 
A wooden paAlette smeared with reds and grays and bElues, 
Dipped my brush into the paint, traced the ouBtline of your face, 
Then I waAshed it clean for color number tEwo. 
There's a liAttle drop of paint in a mBason jar of water,
That turned every last ounce a crimson C#mhue, 
And iAt's the same with you, you had a mBinute with my heart, 
Now you color everything that I Edo. 
SEtew pot's on the boil, hBouse was filled with steam, 
BoAwls and spoons in twos like Noah's aErk, 
Dash of salt and spice to mBake it like you like, 
BrAing it to my lips and there you aEre. 
There's a liAttle pinch of salt in a lBadle full of comfort, 
That opens all the flavors into bC#mloom, 
And iAt's the same with you, you had a mBinute with my heart, 
And now you color everything that I Edo.
A fC#mlower turns its face to the F#sun, 
SBnow melting makes the river rEun, 
TAide rises high to meet the mG#oon, meet the moon. 
    E      A      B    E(x2) 
There's an eAcho in my ear soBunding like your voice, 
A feeling that fills any empty C#mroom, 
You had a mAinute with my heart and I liBve it every day,
'Cause when you brushed against my heart it soaked tC#mhrough,
And nAow my whole world is tinted F#with you, 
Yeah, you coAlor everytBhing that I Edo.

Had my canvas primed in white, some water by my bed,

A wooden palette smeared with reds and grays and blues,

Dipped my brush into the paint, traced the outline of your face,

Then I washed it clean for color number two.

A B

There's a little drop of paint in a mason jar of water,

That turned every last ounce a crimson hue,

And it's the same with you, you had a minute with my heart,

Now you color everything that I do.

Stew pot's on the boil, house was filled with steam,

A E

Bowls and spoons in twos like Noah's ark,

Dash of salt and spice to make it like you like,

Bring it to my lips and there you are.

There's a little pinch of salt in a ladle full of comfort,

And it's the same with you, you had a minute with my heart,

And now you color everything that I do.
