Because dark colors absorb light and light colors reflect light, meaning that they cause the light to go away from the lighter colors.

Why do darker colors get cool faster than lighter colors?
Darker colors absorb more light than lighter colours, hence why they are darker. Therefore they have more energy to release than lighter colours and cool down more rapidly.
Why does coloured glass conduct more heat faster than clear glass?
Because due to the properties of darker colored matter it absorbs heat and retains it while it is repelled or it passes through clear glass
Does lighter objects fall down faster then heavier objects?
No lighter things do not fall faster than heavier things. In a vacuum they will fall at the same speed. Normally the heavier thing will fall down faster because of its weight. Sometimes the lighter thing falls faster depending on the air resistance.
Do lighter colors fade faster?
Yes, lighter colors on clothing will fade faster than dark because there is less dye used to color the lighter clothing. If you are using darker materials, there is more dye that needs to be penetrated through before the color starts to fade. This is generally the same for other materials as well. Sunlight also contributes to the fading of the colors, the exception being flowers. Flowers use a process called photosynthesis to absorb the sun's energy and convert it into "food".

Therefore, the lighter the candle, the less dye molecules are involved minimising the risk of the dye molecules interfering with the combustion process.

Does the color of a cup effect the temperature of the water?
I'd have to say yes if the cup is in sunlight for example. Just like when you wear different colored shirts outside. A darker cup will absorb more light, and a lighter cup will reflect more light. The light energy converts into heat energy. Therefore, a darker colored cup would make water get warmer faster in light.
