New Politics - Color Green lyrics

A three letter word you didn't need a reason
You played your cards he took what he needed
And now you're running wild with the horses
On open fields, you're feeling free
Rose petals on an empty bed
You're holding on to a teenage dream
Dancing in a wedding dress but it
Is only in your mind

Color green, color green
The grass is red from all the cherry trees
Velveteen, velveteen so sweet and soft
She’s falling with the leaves
Color green, color green
The grass is red from all the cherry trees
Velveteen, velveteen so sweet and soft
She’s falling with the leaves

The painful truth you'll have to let him go
Tears don’t last long, no
I'm here to let you know
I still love you with all of my feelings
So much I can’t count the ways now
I'd die for you a million times
And I hope that echoes through
The end of time
I hope that echoes through the end of time
Time

Color green, color green
The grass is red from all the cherry trees
Velveteen, velveteen so sweet and soft
She’s falling with the leaves
Color green, color green
The grass is red from all the cherry trees
Velveteen, velveteen so sweet and soft
She’s falling with the leaves

The idea scares me
Knowing one day you'll grow up
Will I embrace the change like
Seasons come and go?
I want to be there when you
Take your first steps and
Watch you climb to the top of a mountain
Treasure life in a million ways
Let your dreams and your heart light the way
Can your dreams and your heart light the way?

Color green, color green
The grass is red from all the cherry trees
Velveteen, velveteen so sweet and soft
She’s falling with the leaves
Color green, color green
The grass is red from all the cherry trees
Velveteen, velveteen so sweet and soft
She’s falling with the leaves

(She's falling with the leaves
She's falling with the leaves)
