Colourblind

1st Verse:
In America
Singer's singing
'Our world can be as one'
In America
Brothers killing
Some poor mother's son.

Chorus:
But I thank God 
For New York City
This Rainbow of faces
That walks alongside me
Right beside me

2nd Verse:
In America
Cheif Seattle
He's talking to me
In Amerca
Cheif Seattle
He's a man I must see

Chorus

3rd Verse:
In America
Being Irish now
That's something to be
In America
Being Irish now
Means nothing to me

I hear the cries of wounded knee
This trail of tears haunting me
There's too much blood 
On European hands
From Big Sir to Manhattan Island
I leave my Irishness at home
To be among you just as one
To walk across this sacred place
To find the dignity and grace
Of lovers where the eagle flies
Of buffalo under blue skies
I leave all sense of race behind
To be among you colourblind
To learn what history has done
To find the love in everyone

Chorus

Oh yeah...
Oh yeah...
In America
In America
Oh yeah...
