D#m   A#m           C#    F#
Orange is the color of my love
G#              C#         F#     C# 
Fragile orange wind in the garden
D#m      A#m             C#        F#
Fragile means that I can hear her flesh
G#             C#            F#     C# 
Crying little rivers in her forearm
D#m     A#m        C#        F#
Fragile is that I mourn her death
G#                A#m             F#
As our limbs are twisting in her bedroom

Chorus:
D#m          Fm D#m
Lies, lies, lies
G#           A#m F#
Lies in her eyes
D#m          Fm D#m
Lies, lies, lies
Fm          F# A#m C#
Lies in her eyes

She tells me to close and count to ten
As she wanders freely through the forest
Can I close and open once again?
The question that I seek for reassurance

Chorus

Hound dogs crowing at the stars above
Pigeons fall like snowflakes at the border
She kneels down and holds the frozen dove
The moon drips like water from her shoulder

Chorus:
Flies, flies, flies
Flies from her eyes
Flies, flies, flies
Flies from her eyes

Orange is the color of my love
Fragile orange wind in the garden
Fragile means that I can hear her flesh
Crying little rivers in her forearm
Fragile is that I mourn her death
As our limbs are twisting in her bedroom
