paint it black
burdon, eric
i see a red door and i want to paint it black
you better turn them black
i see them walking by dressed in their colorful clothes
no more will my grey sea turn a deeper blue
i cannot foresee this thing happening to you
i see people walking by dressed their summer clothes
everything is black i know
everything is black before my eyes
everything is black i know
there is no color in my life
its turning so very very black
what it's like when your whole world is black
when everything you see and touch
bring some color into my life
i even tripped down and fell
didn't see no colors anymore
and i have to tell you baby
no more will my grey sea go turn a deeper blue
i cannot foresee this thing ever happening to you
i see people walking by me
they're all going in different directions
i see them strolling by and my heart splinters like a flame
since you've been gone is turning black
walk stand up like a man i know
need you standing by my side
because i'm blind and i cannot see
paint everything so black
go ahead and paint it black
everything is black black
need some color in my life.
