Suzanne Vega
World Before Columbus

If your love were taken from me
Every color would be black and white
It would be as flat as the world before Columbus
That's the day that I lose half my sight

If your life were taken from me
All the trees would freeze in this cold ground
It would be as cruel as the world before Columbus
Sail to the edge and I'd be there looking down

Those men who lust for land
And for riches strange and new
Who love those trinkets of desire
Oh they never will have you

And they'll never know the gold
Or the copper in your hair
How could they weigh the worth
Of you so rare

If your love were taken from me
Every light that's bright would soon go dim
It would be as dark as the world before Columbus
Down the waterfall and I'd swim over the brim

Those men who lust for land
And for riches strange and new
Who love those trinkets of desire
Oh they will never have you

And they'll never know the gold
Or the copper in your hair
How could they weigh the worth
Of you so rare



Mirror lyrics:


Of you so rare
How could they weigh the worth
Or the copper in your hair
And they'll never know the gold

Oh they will never have you
Who love those trinkets of desire
And for riches strange and new
Those men who lust for land

Down the waterfall and I'd swim over the brim
It would be as dark as the world before Columbus
Every light that's bright would soon go dim
If your love were taken from me

Of you so rare
How could they weigh the worth
Or the copper in your hair
And they'll never know the gold

Oh they never will have you
Who love those trinkets of desire
And for riches strange and new
Those men who lust for land

Sail to the edge and I'd be there looking down
It would be as cruel as the world before Columbus
All the trees would freeze in this cold ground
If your life were taken from me

That's the day that I lose half my sight
It would be as flat as the world before Columbus
Every color would be black and white
If your love were taken from me
