Story behind the song
When holding my kids in my arms many thoughts fly through my mind, and this song are about a time like this.
Lyrics
I have seen so many colors, reflecting in your eyes.
And listen to the tongue that speaks the secrets about all lies.
And the judge who always said it, by the color of your skin.
He stood necked in front the mighty God, denying all his sins.
And you came home that day you came home that day.
There are old men in the shadows, playing their evil games.
Preparing for tomorrow a war that never ends.
I see a mother who is crying, a father who takes his life.
There are children in the desert no place they can hide.
And you came home that day you came home that day.
There is a singer in the spotlight, who has the stage as his home.
And he is telling you his story, about a life fare beyond.
And he had seen all the colors, that reflecting in your eyes.
And the man who called himself Jesus was it only lies?
And you came home that day you came home that day.
