Paint It Black

I see a red door and

I want to paint it black

No colors 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 my darkness goes

I see a line of cars

And they're all painted black

With 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 my 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 to paint it black

No colors anymore

I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by dressed

In their summer blouse

I have to turn my head

Until my darkness goes

Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

I wanna see it painted

Painted black

Black as night

Black as coal

I wanna see the sun

Blotted out from the sky

I wanna see it painted, painted, painted

Painted black

Yeah!
