What does the last phrase of the song’forbidden colours’mean?
The last phrase is puzzling. The lyrics seem to express the dichotomy in “my life” and “my love”. The choice he has to make. His life by believing in Jesus or his forbidden love. The last phrase seems to suggest he chooses religion. Sylvian in general does like to be overly obscure and roundabout in his lyrics.
