Don'T Let Your Color Fade

Don’t be ashamed of who you are,
He made both dogs and cats;
Who wants a world with only dogs,
Can you imagine that?

Without the color on the page,
There’d be no magazines;
A newspaper’d be hard to read,
If white was all you seen.

Don’t let your color ever fade,
I love you as you are;
Without the blackened midnight sky,
There’d be no shooting star.
