My best guess at the lyrics...

COLOR ME IN

Hello my name is, it really don't matter no,
A book of blank pages, anything you want I'll be,
Write a little love letter on me,
Oh make me fit just right like a hand in a glove,
As close as the lipstick on your coffee cup,
Paint me the picture you're dreaming of,
If that ain't enough,

Color me in,
Any way you wanna begin, I'm in,
Girl you've got me under your spell, I fell,
Any shade you wanna use, color me just right for you,
Color me in,

This might sound crazy, do anything you wanna do,
Your kiss can save me, let wrap these arms around you,
I wanna be the song that's stuck in your head,
Close as a prayer that you'll never forget,
All I can say is just what I said, We'll get the air (?)

Color me in,
Any way you wanna begin, I'm in,
Girl you've got me under your spell, I fell,
Any shade you wanna use, color me just right for you,
Color me in,

Let your imagination run wild,
All I wanna do is make you smile,
And I've got all night,

Hello my name is, my name is,

Color me in,
Any way you wanna begin, I'm in,
Girl you've got me under your spell, I fell,
Any shade you wanna use, color me just right for you,
Color me in,

Color me in,
Color me in,
Color me in,
Color me in,
Not sure if he says in the chorus any way or anywhere.
I think that in the last part is: anything you wanna do instead of any shade you wanna use

Does anyone else cringe just a little at certain lyrics? Not enough to ruin a song, but they just make you react a little negatively.

For instance:

Come on up to our house you could never stay too long....
But we can't stay here tonight

Reaction: So, which is it????

If YOU were born again tomorrow *I* wouldn't live my life any other way

Reaction: Don't change person mid-sentence!!!!

I'm singing carpe diem
I'm saying seize the day

Reaction: Yes, I know. That's what carpe diem means. You're being redundant.

But there are some really great lyrics on the album too. I'll focus on those later.

That one bothered me too but I think I figured it out. I think he's saying, they can't stay at the place they're at but want to keep the night going, so come on up to our house where you can never stay too long.

All are welcome at our table
You could/can never stay too long

You can come to our house and have a meal, take your time, there's no hurry, there's no waiter to urge you to leave...

I wish tonight could last forever
'Cause I ain't good at saying goodbye
Everyone knows we don't want to go home
But we can't stay here tonight

... but you can't sleep here, it's not a hotel nor a shelter + we can't stay together.

This.

I think about it at as being in a concert with them, we can't stay there all night at the venue but we are invited to go to their house afterwards where no one is going to urge us to leave.

"You" is adressing a general principle. "If that were the case, that you'd just be born again tomorrow, if one were to just be reborn - I, for one, wouldn't regret a thing".

Question: I was listening to the CD in my car, which has better speakers, and at the end of Devil's in the Temple, on the very last repeat of the title, it sounds like Jon says something different than "The devil's in the temple and he ain't no friend of mine." It sounds more like "The devil's on ?? And he ain't no friend of mine."

Does anybody else hear it or know what he says?

Just listened to it via headphones and he says the same as in the lines before. There's some distorted guitar laid over the vocals at that very point which might've been the reason it sounded somewhat different.

The lyrics of Real Love during the first verse it really bothers me a bit how it's different on the booklet and what Jon sings. You didn't say that many syllables Jon, don't try to deceive me!!!!
