Family
The Colours Lyrics

Mother and Stan don't blame yourself for Rose
Do not feel guilty, Mother and Stan, for what happened to Rose. She was careless and played dangerously on the road.

She was out there playing in the road
Rose was playing outside unsupervised and did not take proper precautions for her safety.

Better to let her know not to forget
It is important to remind Rose to remember her education and lessons learned in life.

All that schooling goes right through their heads
Education and knowledge are only useful if they are learned and internalized.

They take back all
People sometimes retract their promises and apologies.

And when you give them loving
Even when you love someone unconditionally, they may not reciprocate those feelings or show appreciation.

Fall you to your knees
This feeling of disappointment can be powerful enough to make one feel defeated and powerless.

Then give back nothing
In response to your love, they may not offer anything in return.

But looking through love
Despite these disappointments, if you look through the eyes of love, you can find true meaning in life.

You know there's something... so real
Love is a powerful force that can create meaningful connections and entire families.

Father and Son you're in this one so deep
Father and Son, your bond is strong and runs deep.

I could always lull myself to sleep
Your constant presence in my life gives me a sense of comfort and security.

But I will cry to let you always know
I will show my emotions to let you know how much I value and need you in my life.

All my life I need your time to grow
I rely on your guidance and presence throughout my life to help me grow and learn.
