Lyrics
When you were born
A shadow fell upon your life
A darker shade of light befell you
And through our eyes
We watched you dance and play
And we held out our empty arms
To hold you
Colleen, such a strange love
Colleen, were you ever there
Colleen, such a strange love
And although your eyes are open wide, you know we'll never see
Colleen
We watched you flounder
In the ocean of your thoughts we watched you drown
In your confusion
Your very being's part of life that we embraced
Your very thoughts came from above
Colleen, such a strange love
Colleen, were you ever there
Colleen, such a strange love
And although your eyes are open wide, you know we'll never see
Colleen
When you were born
A shadow fell upon your life
A darker shade of light befell you
And through our eyes
We watched you dance and play
And we held out our empty arms
To hold you
Colleen, such a strange love
Colleen, were you ever there
Colleen, such a strange love
And although your eyes are open wide, you know we'll never see
