VideosThe original demo of the song was posted as a video on Tom's YouTube channel in September 2008, and has now had nearly 200,000 views (his second most popular video, beaten only by "Internet Love Song").
This is what he said at the time "So here we are. A new album is in the making for you lovely people, and it will be ready, hopefully, by early 2009 [actually released 1 December 2009]. It will be a rather novel departure from Awkward Ballads in terms of instrumentation, but subject matter, witty lyricism and lovely music will be staying put :D I do so hope you like it. "

LyricsIf I mattered to you
Then all I would see is indigo.
Nothing else I could do
Could ever make you more dear to me and so
Every green, every blue,
Every red, orange, and ultramarine
I've seen
Would go indigo for you.
Every time that I look
Deep inside me the colour's all I see
And my mind is a book
Rainbow-painted, a story about me.
Photographs that I took
That were once black and white would now be free
To be
In shades of indigo for you.
Orange, yellow, green, and malachite,
Octarine, light plum, and eggshell white,
International Klein Blue, maroon,
Azure, magenta, midnight blue,
Harlequin, and helitrope,
Tea, tan, turquoise, teal, and taupe,
Amaranth, and ivory,
Cosmic latté, tangerine.
If I mattered to you
Then all I would see is indigo.
Nothing else I could do
Could ever make you more dear to me and so
Every green, every blue,
Every pink, black, white, grey, yellow, mauve, and cerise,
Beige, and ultramarine
I've seen
Would go indigo for you. |
