what's in blue is sung by Oleta Adams, what's in pink is sung by Jaci Velasquez, what's in purple is sung by both!
|
|
Gracia, justicia, paz y verdad -- los colores. ["Grace, justice, peace and truth -- the colors."]
|
What would you see if you saw me walking down your street,
|
The shade of my skin or the heart that's beating deeply within?
|
|
[Oh, we're*] only as different
|
As we want the difference to be. (mmm-mmm)
|
Colors may change from face to face,
|
But we're all human underneath.
|
|
Oh, I want the world to see (mmm-hmm)
|
The colors that live in me,
|
Grace and peace, truth and love,
|
Oh these are the colors of the heart.
|
|
I want the world to see
|
([Yo quiero*] que vean mi color) ["[I want you] to see my passion (or color)"]
|
The colors that live in me,
|
([Como el*] color del amor) ["[Like the] color of love"]
|
Grace and peace, truth and love,
|
Oh these are the colors of the heart.
|
Of the heart...
|
|
Under the skin is the place where understanding begins.
|
It's here that I've found everybody stands on common ground.
|
|
Fallen people in need of the grace
|
That can heal the wounds of history,
|
And open up our jaded eyes (open up our jaded eyes)
|
To all that's good in you and me.
|
|
Oh, I want the world to see
|
The colors that live in me,
|
Grace and peace, truth and love,
|
Oh these are the colors of the heart.
|
|
Yo quiero que vean mi color ["I want you to see my passion (or color)"]
|
I want the world to see
|
Como el color del amor ["Like the color of love"]
|
Colors that live in me:
|
Grace and peace, truth and love,
|
Oh these are the colors of the heart.
|
|
We['ve*] let the color of our skin divide us
|
And it's been going on too long;
|
The time has come to let the colors inside us
|
Come shining through and make us strong. (Make us strong)
|
|
I want the world to see
|
The colors that live in me
|
Grace and peace, truth and love,
|
Oh these are the colors of the heart.
|
|
Yo quiero que vean mi color ["I want you to see my passion (or color)"]
|
I want the world to see
|
Como el color del amor ["Like the color of love"]
|
Colors that live in me
|
Es su gracia, justicia, verdad, ["It's your grace, justice, truth"]
|
Los colores del corazon. ["The colors of the heart."]
|
Colors of the heart,
|
Colors of the heart.
|
|
Como gloria, (mmm) como gracia, justicia, paz y verdad (I want the world to see, ohh) in mi corazon.
|
["Like glory, like grace, peace, and truth in my heart."]
|
(Ooh) In mi corazon... (ohh) gracia, justicia... ["In my heart...grace, justice..."]
|
