Lyrics
Would it Matter to You
Words and music by Titus
Would it matter to you
If you thought my clothes were strange
Would you stand by me
Or laugh and call me names
Or if I were blind
Your face I could not see
Would you turn away
Or would you watch for me
Could we be friends
If I wasn?t just like you
If my skin were white or dark as night
What then would you do
Would you talk to me
Would you try to understand
If I weren?t like you
What would you do
Chorus:
You know we?re all the same inside
And you can make somebody laugh
Or break there heart until they cry
But love is all we need
I believe someday we?ll live in peace
When everybody?s free
Would it matter to you
If I?m left without a home
Could I stay with you
Or walk the streets alone
Could we be friends
If I wasn?t just like you
If I loved a man and took his hand
What then would you do
Would you talk to me
Would you try to understand
If I weren?t like you
What would you do
