[Chorus]
Water colours
Falling down the page
Thought of, something
Don’t know how to say
Even though I travelled on the train
Even if I’m standing all the way
I’m bored of summers
If you're there in the rain
[Verse 1]
Dreaming
You won’t believe it
Like when it feels new but they're old feelings
Run flows for the whole evening
If I kicked ball I’d score goals for the whole season
Let it run like water colours
Walk down the road and I thought of something
Real talk I ain’t talking rubbish
I’ve been here for twenty-four summers
There’s a lot to be happy for here
I ain’t seen you in three or four years
Came to my show and it was more clear
What I knew then, wasn’t what I saw here
At the end of it all you're more happy
They say that it’s just a word but you're family
That makes my mum pleased too
You don’t need me as much as I need you
[Chorus]
Water colours
Falling down the page
Thought of, something
Don’t know how to say
Even though I travelled on the train
Even if I’m standing all the way
I’m bored of summers
If you're there in the rain
[Verse 2]
Working in my sleep
I’m just tryna be the best person I can be
I hope when I’m thirty I’ve achieved, all the things that I wanted to do in my dreams
If I don’t
Then I’m still grateful
Even after you done that I still rate you
I could never hate you
Somethings can’t change cos they don’t how so they're never able
I'm not good with numbers
Paint runs down the page when I water colours
And I thought I was but
Guess I weren’t on the same page as all the others
It's not that deep
I recognise you from the things in my dreams
I know that it’s hard but breathe
I still make tunes from the things that I see
Water Colours was written by Frankie Stew & Harvey Gunn.
Water Colours was produced by Harvey Gunn.
Frankie Stew & Harvey Gunn released Water Colours on Fri Feb 28 2020.
This song started with Harvey playings the main keyboard chord progression, we then got the guitar riff played over and knew it had real potential.
This song took shape with sessions with Joel Baker and BKlava. We really finessed the chorus over these and that lovely little piano riff actually got added in during a party with friends.
I use to love art and music when I was at school, they’re the only two things really. My dad also used to paint quite a lot, he used water colours and that gave me the inspiration for this.
