Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 inside
The love that I have for me will never never die ie ie
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

Mm mm
Everything looks beautiful sky so baby blue
I'm anxious to know where the rest of this road will gooo
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 hey-ey life looks so amazing
