My first, last and greatest love
Was nobody’s idea of, nobody’s idea of
My next, best and brightest move
They did not approve, oh they did not agree

Sometimes, there is a colour just two pairs of eyes can see
Sometimes, it’s not how they say it will be

Love found me in a lonely way
Hiding at a party I hadn’t been invited to
In the company of silent graves
The dear and the departed, the brave and brokenhearted

When love came, the scenery was brighter than it had been before
Love came; I opened my eyes and was sure

My first, last and greatest love
Only stayed a moment, a moment was enough
To show there was more than death
As my love surrendered, I promised to remember

That sometimes there is a colour just two pairs of eyes can see
Sometimes, it’s more than they say it will be
