Paint It Black

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 see a red door and I want it painted black

No colours anymore I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes

I have to turn my head until the darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black

The flowers and my love both never to come back

I see people turn their heads and quickly look away

Like a new born baby it just happens ev'ry day

I look inside myself and see my heart is black

I see a red door and it has been painted black

Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts

It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue

I could not foresee this thing happening to you

If I look hard enough into the settin' sun

My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black

No colours anymore I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes

I have to turn my head until the darkness goes

I wanna see it painted, painted black

Black as night, black as coal

I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky

Painted, painted black, painted, painted black
