Dear Karin, tell me what it was that our friends used to laugh at us with,
Oh Dear Karin, tell me what it was that our parents used to hate us for,
And if you look back in time would you tell me that you saw this amazing life,
Remember me, Funny how I am still the man you hitched hiked with when we were both running from our storms,
We did not intend for it to last this long and good, we were both looking for shelter from our storms,
Remember me, I am the man you swore to love no matter what our ancestors did to each other,
Now I wonder what you think when you look at our twins,
From time to time, I go back to the day we first met,
From time to time, I remember what Our friends said about our love,
They said our love was cursed, and we were out to upset my ancestors cause black and white can mix,
Dear Karin, tell me do you still believe in our love,
Oh, Dear Karin, I learned about love in American soapies,
Since I was never bold and beautiful, I used my stories to win your heart,
And if you look back in time would you believe that you and I will be this good,
Remember your answer to our friend when they said we are both lost and our love was doomed,
You just sang out loud saying "such a shame, look around, you missing out on all the good things"
Now they sing back, "you got your dreams and you got yourselves a good family"
And from time to time they go online to admire the life we build,
I laugh at how they said maybe I am possessed, or it some kind of virus, even got doctors to check my blood for something wrong,
Now holding hands tight knowing, in the end, it will be just us, waiting for the gods to still punish our union,
Now we are in our garden, in a rich man's paradise, a place is known as Pretoria East,
This is the place we feel we could die in, this is the place we call home,
Thank you for believing in us, black and white is nothing but words rooted in ignorance or a scholar would say black and white is just color.
