Mary J. Blige - Color (From the Motion Picture "Precious") lyrics

It took a long time to get to this place And now that I'm here no one can ever erase The joy that I feel way down deep beside The love that I have for me will never, never die I can see in color the first sign of spring The rose buds are blooming I got a new song, new song to sing Life looks so amazing I never knew that it could open my eyes And for the very, very first time I can see in color Everything looks beautiful, sky so baby blue I'm anxious to know where the rest of this road will go If April showers bring flowers then I need, I need more rain To quench the drought in me, so rain on me, rain on me I can see in color the first sign of spring The rose buds are blooming I got a new song, a new song to sing Life looks so amazing I never knew that it could open, open my, open my eyes And for the very, very first time I can see I can see in color the first sign, the first signs of spring It looks so beautiful to me I can see, I can see, I can see, I can see in color Sky so baby blue, so baby blue I can see, I can see I can see in color the first sign of spring And now the rose buds are blooming I can touch them, I can feel them I'mma hold them forever and ever and ever and ever And ever, I'ma hold 'em ever, I'ma be forever I can see, I can see, I can see I can see, I can see, I can see I can see, see in color, color, color, color It's all clear
