Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yesterday I got lost in the circus
Feeling like such a mess
And now I'm down
I'm just hanging on the corner
I can't help but reminisce
[Chorus]
'Cause when you're gone
All the colors fade when you're gone
No, New Year's Day parade, you're gone
Colors seem to fade
[Verse 2]
Your mama called, she said
That you're downstairs crying
Feeling like such a mess
Yeah, I hear ya
In the background bawling
What happened to your sweet summer time dress?
I know we all
We all got our faults
We get locked in our vaults
And we stay
[Chorus]
When you're gone
All the colors fade
When you're gone
No, New Year's Day parade, you're gone
Colors seem to fade
Colors seem to fade, yeah
