I love life the way it should be
Where we all have a soul mate
Where when we're born we see in color
Until our other's fate
But for me it's quite the opposite
I've never seen color a day in my life
All shades and highlights and different tones
Of the same old black and white
Eventually I somehow came to terms
I accepted my colorless scheme
So you can imagine how startled I was
When my reality took after my dream
I opened eyes to meet light shades of morning
To instead have them flooded with ***
I was bombarded by all of these new tints and tones
I couldn't ever select a choice one
Though after the initial shock of it all
I was startled once again more
With the realization that I finally found you
The someone meant to color my world

I've never seen color a day in my life
All shades and highlights and different tones
Of the same old black and white
Eventually I somehow came to terms

So you can imagine how startled I was
When my reality took after my dream
I opened eyes to meet light shades of morning
To instead have them flooded with ***
I was bombarded by all of these new tints and tones
I couldn't ever select a choice one
Though after the initial shock of it all
I was startled once again more
With the realization that I finally found you
The someone meant to color my world
