Johnny Clegg
Colour of My Skin
[Verse 1]
I'm caught inside the colour of my skin
People see me from the outside in
It doesn't matter what I've done or where I've been
Like a promise unfulfilled I'm waiting
I'm waiting

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm singin' out wo-yo
It'll be right
Oh-oh-oh-oh
It'll be right

Wo-yo
It'll be right
Oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]
One day I will be gathered to my people
Under the warmth of the Sun shining
For the world has all my brothers and my sisters
And love will be the prize we win
And love will be the prize we win

[Verse 2]
If the eyes are the soul's open window
And if the mouth can speak words and make it fly
I'd say we all are the colours of your water
Like drops of rain fallin' from a common sky
A common sky
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm singin' out wo-yo
It'll be right
Oh-oh-oh-oh
It'll be right

Wo-yo
It'll be right
Oh-oh-oh-oh

[Coda]
One day I will be gathered to my people
Under the warmth of the Sun shining
For the world has all my brothers and my sisters
And love will be the prize we win
And love will be the prize we win

One day, oh
(It'll be right)
One day, oh-oh-oh
(It'll be right)
One day, oh
(It'll be right)
Love will be the prize we win

One day, oh
(It'll be right)
One day, oh-oh-oh
(It'll be right)
One day, oh
(It'll be right)
Love will be the prize we win
One day I will be gathered to my people
Under the warmth of the Sun shining
For the world has all my brothers and my sisters
And love will be the prize we win
And love will be the prize we win

One day, oh
([?])
One day, oh-oh-oh

One day, oh
Love will be the prize we win

One day, oh

One day, oh-oh-oh
([?])
One day, oh
Love will be the prize we win
