[Verse 1]
There's a cruel sun beating where there once was a river
Crops are bending' in the heat but still her dark skin shivers
When you move to the beat of hungry it's a slow achin' journey
She'd hide but there ain't no shelter she'd cry but there ain't no pity yet
The cool of the night reveals the spark of a sweeter life
So she's dreaming' in color and livin' in black and white
[Chorus]
Dreaming' in color living in stone cold black and white
Sitting in a grey day leaning on a bright new tomorrow
Where some rainbow rules will make everything all right
She ain't about to let the blues overcome her
She'll contend with this day to day life
She's just dreaming' in color livin' in black and white
[Verse 2]
Well it's a gunshot dawn here in the heart of the city
He slides closer to his mama it's months since they've seen daddy
There's a pale light shining' from a bare refrigerator
By the stained cracked plaster by the cold radiator
But he's sure out beyond these mean streets there lies paradise
So he's dreaming' in color and living in black and white
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Dreaming' in color living in black and white
Dreaming' in color living' in black and white
Dreaming' in color living' in black and white
There's a cruel sun beating where there once was a river
Crops are bending' in the heat but still her dark skin shivers
When you move to the beat of hungry it's a slow achin' journey
She'd hide but there ain't no shelter she'd cry but there ain't no pity yet
The cool of the night reveals the spark of a sweeter life
So she's dreaming' in color and livin' in black and white
[Chorus]
Dreaming' in color living in stone cold black and white
Sitting in a grey day leaning on a bright new tomorrow
Where some rainbow rules will make everything all right
She ain't about to let the blues overcome her
She'll contend with this day to day life
She's just dreaming' in color livin' in black and white
[Verse 2]
Well it's a gunshot dawn here in the heart of the city
He slides closer to his mama it's months since they've seen daddy
There's a pale light shining' from a bare refrigerator
By the stained cracked plaster by the cold radiator
But he's sure out beyond these mean streets there lies paradise
So he's dreaming' in color and living in black and white
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Dreaming' in color living in black and white
Dreaming' in color living' in black and white
Dreaming' in color living' in black and white
