Everyone knows the price of regret Things in life we never forget Haunted by what we've done wrong Yearning for the pain to be gone Some hide in a bottle and some die in vain Some wave a Bible and some just go insane Lay down your judgement or lay down your shame We're all God's children and we all breathe the same You're black and I'm white You're blinded by sight Close your eyes and tell me the color of my skin If we let today just pass away Without kindness and forgiveness, there's no light Everyone's broken, oh, everyone's scarred All the things we needed wind up in the yard Brothers and sisters, I mean you no harm Healing's waiting in each other's arms ♪ You're black and I'm white You're blinded by sight Close your eyes and tell me the color of my skin If we let today just pass away Without kindness and forgiveness, there's no light Everyone knows the price of regret Things in life we never forget
