What is the difference between right and wrong?
Between big and small,
Between short and tall.

What is the difference between left and right?
Between up and down,
Between day and night.

What is the difference between Old and new?
Between cat and dog,
Between me and you.

There isn’t much of a difference that I see,
But maybe your eyes see differently.

Maybe you see the difference between right and wrong.
Big and small,
Short and tall.

Maybe you see the difference between left and right.
Up and down,
Day and night.

And what about the difference between old and new?
Cat and dog,
Me and you.

Do you see the differences that I can’t find?
The ones in the dark,
Hidden behind the blinds?

I guess we are not compatible,
You and me,
When I see the same you see differently.

I thought we were the same, but I now know I was wrong,
Because we were never the same at all.
