[Verse 1]
Orange is the color of my love
Fragile orange wind in the garden
Fragile means that I can hear her flesh
Crying little rivers in her forearm
Fragile is that I mourn her death
As our limbs are twisting in her bedroom
[Verse 2]
Lies, lies, lies
Lies in her eyes
Lies, lies, lies
Lies in her eyes
[Verse 3]
She tells me to close and count to ten
As she wanders freely through the forest
Can I close and open once again?
The question that I seek for reassurance
[Verse 4]
Lies, lies, lies
Lies in her eyes
Lies, lies, lies
Lies in her eyes
[Verse 5]
Hound dogs crowing at the stars above
Pigeons fall like snowflakes at the border
She kneels down and holds the frozen dove
The moon drips like water from her shoulder
[Verse 6]
Flies, flies, flies
Flies from her eyes
Flies, flies, flies
Flies from her eyes
[Verse 7]
Orange is the color of my love
Fragile orange wind in the garden
Fragile means that I can hear her flesh
Crying little rivers in her forearm
Fragile is that I mourn her death
As our limbs are twisting in her bedroom
