The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'd like to see you in black
It'd make me feel like your husband's dead
I'd like to see you in black
We could make him suffer instead
I'd like to see you in black
I'd like to see you in black
You can't lie to me Ann
You can't pretend he isn't beating you up
I saw the marks on your hands
I saw the blood on your coffee cup
I'd like to see you in black
I'd like to see you in black
I'd like to see you in black
I'd like to see you in black
I'd like to see you in black!
The wind plucks your black lace gown
You're standin' proudly beside his grave
I see you wearing black
Gently smiling and oh so brave
We'll run away to Greece
We'll walk the ruins of the Parthenon
We'll drink ouzo in our tub
Watch the dust billow 'til the night's gone
I'd like to see you in black
I'd like to see you in black
I'd love to see you in black
I'd like to see you in black
I'd like to see you in black!
In black!
In black!
