Inside...

You and me are a lot alike
But you can’t tell from our appearance
You’re black and I’m white
We exist in opposite worlds,
Live in different circles.

But deep down,
You’re a perfect reflection of me
I need someone to love me,
I need someone to care for.
I need a shoulder to cry on.

Will you be my friend?
We can overcome our external differences
It’s what’s on the inside that really counts.
So who cares what they say?
We’re not that different anyway.
