I watched the video today
Think I saw you in the back
Pixelated outline of your face in grains of red and green and black
Just when I went to press replay
Realised my mind was in the past
'Cause you're gone now and I know you've gone to stay
And you're never coming back

In the red and the green and the black
Make your face out of the shapes and the blades of trampled grass
I can see you in the sunset silhouette
I see you in my dreams and I'm sad 'cause it never lasts

I can see you in the red the green the black
I can see you in the red the green the black

I think I saw your face today
Your reflection in a glass
Detergent on the surface split the sunlight into red and green and black
But then the colours went away
Like the memories fading fast (ooh)
But you're gone now and I know you've gone to stay
And you're never coming back

In the red and the green and the black
Make your face out of the shapes and the blades of trampled grass
I can see you in the sunset silhouette
I see you in my dreams and I'm sad 'cause it never lasts

I can see you in the red the green the black
I can see you in the red the green the black
Oh and you know that I can see you in the red the green the black
Oh I can see you in the red the green the black

Life keeps turning like a wheel
And heaven knows it's spinning fast
People go from scene to scene in traffic lights from red to green and back
But even on the brightest days the sky's a little grey and overcast
You've gone now and I know you've gone to stay and you're never coming back (back back back back back)

In the red and the green and the black
Make your face out of the shapes and the blades of trampled grass
I can see you in the sunset silhouette
I see you in my dreams and I'm sad 'cause it never lasts

I can see you in the red the green the black
I can see you in the red the green the black
Don't you know that I can see you in the red the green the black?
I can see you in the red the green the black
