Color Blind

Color blind I was making my last trip Before I go home tonight But when I reach San Fernando She stops me by the traffic light I said where to lady She said ste Madeleine And I saw her in the rear view mirror She use to be my girl friend We were going to be marry But our parents couldn’t get along A Muslim boy and a Hindu girl They say that it was wrong Then one day she sends a letter They stop her from seeing me And they are sending her away To life with her aunt in Germany I remember that night Driving to mayaro beach try to find a peace of mind But it could not be reach Then she said to me Are you not going to tell me hi? Why did you ever leave? And never said goodbye I was caught by surprise The words stuck in my throat She said I waited everyday for a letter But you never even send me a note I said I never leave you They said you gone to Germany So I leave ste Madeleine And move to the country She said she was heart broken The day she got my letter Saying I’m going to New York To live with my brother We got out the car And as we hug it starts to rain But we never even notice Because we found love again Some parents are out of touch They can cause so much pain I hope what happen to us Don’t happen to any love again God just give us life And religion was made by man And sometimes the thing they practice Was never part of gods plan? Love comes from the heart Love is not color blind I hope you find your happiness Today I got back mine
