Indigo is blue like the you of me or you

Ebony is darker than the deepest

Emerald like the water

We swam in for a while

To a man of many colors I give word

He's a charmer my man of many colors

He sings till hours take him

Well past midnight

His indigo in evenin' skies

Ebony on moonless night

But he's emerald come the morning

Through the window ooh

Indigo is blue like the you of me or you

Ebony is darker than the deepest

Emerald like the water we swam in for a while

To a man of many colors I give word

Amidst the gold there is

Dust in every heart

And in the blue there is a web

Of tangled thoughts

Oh how the crystals mix with

Shards of broken glass

We tried to take the danger

From the plight of crimson red

But all left stare me blindly

Through the colors and the fog

Indigo is blue like the you of me or you

Ebony is darker than the deepest

Emerald like the water we swam in for a while

To a man of many colors I gave word

By the light of a match

I caught the colors in my hand

And the sun threw this old stone

It is red on jam amber blue and violet

Like graffiti scattered leaves

Dropped the cold mat ooh

Indigo is blue like the you of me or you

Ebony is darker than the deepest

Emerald like the water we swam in for a while

To a man of many colors I gave word

To a man of many colors I gave word

To a man of many colors I gave word
