Comin' to me in the mornin', leavin' me alone
You've got that rainbow fee,l but the rainbow has a beard
Runnin' to me a cryin', when he throws you out
Runnin' to me a cryin', on your own again
You've got that pure feel, such good responses
But the picture has a mustache
You comin' to me with that soulful look on your face
Comin', lookin' like you've never ever done one wrong thing
You're comin' to me with that soulful look on your face
You're comin', lookin' like you've never ever done one wrong thing
So many fantastic colors, I feel in a wonderland
Many fantastic colors makes me feel so good
You've got that pure feel, such good responses
