Young Gifted And Black

Written by irvine and simone

Available on the album reg dwight's piano goes pop



Young, gifted and black

Oh what a lovely precious dream

To be young, gifted and black

Open your heart to what i mean



In the whole world you know

There's a million boys and girls

Who are young, gifted and black

And that's a fact





Young, gifted and black

We must begin to tell our young

There's a world waiting for you

This is a quest that's just begun





When you feel really low

Yeah, there's a great truth you should know

When you're young, gifted and black

Your soul's intact





Young, gifted and black

How i long to know the truth

There are times when i look back

And i am haunted by my youth





Oh but my joy of today

Is that we can all be proud to say

To be young, gifted and black

Is where it's at
