Colours of Change
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm showing you this picture
Because it changed all that I am
It's a picture of somebody
She's beautiful and holding my hand
At the moment they took the picture
I felt a moment of something real
And I knew I could be somebody
And change this life I feel
I feel a new day coming on
See colours of change
I feel a new day coming on
I know the feeling of every man who's lived alone
And found that special place that he could call his own
Not that it means anything at all {x2}
She's just the one who gives me
A place in this world
For an instant
I felt the sun was shining down on me
And I knew
I had the chance
To be somebody
I feel a new day coming on
See colours of change
I feel a new day coming on
