Coloured RainTraffic

Released: December 8, 1967

Songwriter: Chris Wood (Traffic) Steve Winwood Jim Capaldi

Producer: Jimmy Miller

Yesterday I was a young boy
Searching for my way
Not knowing what I wanted
Living life from day to day
Till you came along
There was nothing but an empty space and a pain

Feels like coloured rain
Tastes like coloured rain
Bring on coloured rain
Yeah!

I can see a sail of changing
Filling with surprise
United with a feeling
Bringing love into my eyes
Till you came along
There was nothing but an empty space and a pain

Traffic

British psychedelic pop/rock band Traffic found success in both the UK and the US, captivating listeners with a broad array of genre-bending instrumentation.

Traffic was formed in 1967 when Steve Winwood parted ways with the Spencer Davis Group to join drummer Jim Capaldi, guitarist Dave Mason, and woodwind and keys player Chris Wood in their exploration of psychedelia and the tougher variations of late-sixties rock.
