Never See - The Stranglers

Never see the beauty of a man’s heart never see

Never see the truth in the lies between them never see

All they see is colour of a man’s skin

Thoughts can be prisons and thoughts can be wings

Never see the promise of the future never see

Never see they foster their confusion never see

So many twisted meanings their words can’t explain

And thoughts can be prisons and thoughts can be wings

And you’ll never see, never see another man’s sorrow

Did you ever read, ever read another man’s story?

Plus ca change will guarantee the same tomorrow

If progress is forgiving

No progress has been made

Never see the man with his family never see

Never see the pride they can’t deny him never see

All they see is colour of a man’s skin

Thoughts can be prisons and thoughts can be wings, the wings

Never see, never see, never see oh!

oh!

Never see, never see, never see oh!

will!

Thoughts can be prisons and thoughts can be wings
