Color Blind

by Michael W. Smith, Dann Huff & Wayne Kirkpatrik

on Change Your World (1992)



There's not a world of difference

Out in the world tonight

Between this world of people

Red, Yellow, Black and White

But intead of riding a rainbow of love

We still are fighting with prejudice gloves

Of anger

With something to claim

But nothing to gain so



Chorus:

Why can't we be color blind

You know we should

Be living together

And we'd find a reason and rhyme

I know we would

'Cause we could see better

If we could be color blind



Somebody's just assuming

He's up to nothing good

'Cause he's not like the others

There goes the neighborhood

What kind of world are we living in

When we judge a man by the tone of his skin

It's crazy

'Cause he has a heart

Like you have a heart and



Chorus



Bridge:

It'd be so fine

To be color blind

To open our eyes

And see color blind



I know this world would be a better place

The only race would be the human race

All of those barriers would be erased

Why can't we be color blind



Chorus
