Colours of Our Hearts
Intro:
Who would have thought, that I'd find myself a girl like you/ I never would have knew, that I could catch a butterfly as beautiful as you/ just show me girl, show me how to capture the colours of your heart/ and I'll show you how to handle mine/ all I ask for is a few minutes of your time/
Verse 1:
Maybe it's cause I got these tattoos all over my skin/ maybe it's cause I've been praying for the Lord to take away my sins/ maybe it's cause I wear my heart right here in my sleeve/ or maybe it's cause I don't doubt myself, now I finally believe/ that to become a man I need to stop my childish ways/ straighten out my path and walk in my own shoes for seven days/ sleep in my own room for seven nights without clouding my head/ lay down and let the Lord calm my soul as I rest in bed/just find peace within myself and feel blessed with what I've been given/ cause I've spent too long praying everyday to find a better way to keep on living/ see this world can be cruel, harsh and hateful,/but if I can find love then I'll be grateful/ for the chance to show someone my true colours/ cause if I fight for her then maybe we can become lovers/
Verse 2:
You've seen me now and this is relationship thing is workin/ I used to feel a hell of a lot of pain, but you keep me from hurtin/ it's like I showed you a part of me that I kept hidden in the dark/ so you brought me into the light and showed it to my heart/ no longer do I stress about the demons that I had crawling inside my chest/ cause you struck them down with your love, now all I do is my best/ and it's all for you, I just wanna give you my all/ so here I stand, since you held my hand, and picked me up from the fall/ like Adam and Eve we got our faults so as long as we got each other's heart, nothing can tear us apart/ cause you captured me and I captured you, so lets throw away the keys and love the colours of our hearts/
