Overview
"I See Colors" is sung by Kelsey Grammer as the character Micky Adams. The song's existence first became known to fans after the title was added to the BMI Repertoire (#31493750) in 2019. Some fans have noted the song's melody vaguely resembles the melody from the Cuomo demo "This Is the Way", though a connection between the two hasn't been confirmed.

Lyrics
I clean my guitar with a cotton cloth
And wipe off the fingerprints
Sweat and alcohol of a breakthrough gig
At a club called Leviticus
Pack it all away in a Gibson case
Stickers put on in a happier place
Don't turn the light on
I'm living the life
Ridin' in silence
Tears in my eyes
I see colors when you're with me
When you're with me oh, oh, oh
I see colors when you're with me
When you're with me oh, oh, oh
Call from the hotel
Wait for your voice
It's a habit I'll never break
I ask how you're doin'
You say that you're fine
I know I've made a mistake
You can't resist me
Sippin' a whiskey
Lookin' neat and tidy
Fit for a king
I stare out the window
Clouds in the sky
So far away
I tell you good-bye
I see colors when you're with me
When you're with me oh, oh, oh
We're on the way to paradise
But it's lonely at the top
I see colors when you're with me, baby
