SINGER: Icehouse
SONG:Man Of Colours
There's a noise upstairs in the attic it's the shuffle of worn out shoes and the scent of the oil and brushes drifts down like a pale perfume <chorus begin> and he says, "i... i am a man, a simple man, ...a man of colours, and i can see see through the years, years of a man, ...a man of colours" <chorus end> And the old man rubs his failing eyes and takes a moment to watch the view from a window nobody knows is there he can see the empty street below [chorus] He says, "i keep my life in this paintbox i keep your face in these picture frames and when i speak to this faded canvas it tells me i have no need for words anyway..." [chorus] And he says, "i... i am a man, a simple man, ...a man of colours, and i can see see through the tears, tears of a man, ...a man of colours"
