Lyrics
“Indigo” Capers Simmons VERSE I Once upon a time There was a man—born blind. He lived his life in darkness all around. He took a painter for a wife And he asked her, late one night “Can you tell me how the colors feel and sound? PRECHORUS I Do they make you think of music, Or the scent of my cologne? Is there any way a blind man Can sense the colors that you know? CHORUS I Does the rainbow taste like birthday cake Does green smell like the sea? Does yellow sound like a merry-go-round Or a church bell as it rings? And I have to know if indigo is hot or cold inside. Do I have to ask an angel what blue feels like?” VERSE II She gently pulled him close And whispered to him, “No, you don’t— They’re everything you dream of late at night. Darling, I will be your eyes. I will hold your hands and guide.” And she did not leave his side until she died. PRECHORUS II She left her laughter there, like music, Her perfume in his nose He prayed for sight, for one more night He prayed for indigo. CHORUS II “Does heartbreak taste like sour grapes? Does pain smell like decay? Does sorrow sound like the rain come down, Or thunder far away? Is loneliness like broken glass that cuts you deep inside? Do you have to lose an angel to know what blue feels like?” BRIDGE It feels like snow: so deep, so cold. It weighs you down, it makes no sound, but still you know That you can’t breathe, and you can’t break free. When you miss your chance, it’s the avalanche you’re underneath. PREHORUS II He bought back all her paintings And found the ones she hadn’t sold. He ran his hands across the canvas, Felt indigo. CHORUS III “Does white taste like a kiss goodnight, And gray a kiss goodbye? Does red smell like a valentine? Is it the crimson that makes me cry? O Lord, please show me indigo, ‘cause heaven knows I’ve tried And I’m waiting on an angel of God to open up my eyes. I can let go, ‘cause now I know what blue feels like
