First time i saw you i swore that nothing on heaven or earth could compare
Your skin was brown like the soil that i worked all day long and your eyes were like fire
I was afraid that you wouldn't care a thing for me - i was afraid of this very fear
But you were there waiting - when i came calling - i couldn't have done it again if i'd tried

But she was young
And i was young
And we're not afraid
To live life to the fullest

When you took me to your hometown - people they didn't understand
When you took me to your house - they would not shake my hand
Well, it is love - why can nobody see it?
Do they know what love looks like - or do they choose to ignore?

If you want me - you can have me
And just maybe - i will change your world for you
Cos these feelings - that i'm feelin'
They make me not afraid to change your world for you
