I wanna see it painted, painted black
Maybe then I’ll fade away and not have to face the facts
Black as night, black as coal
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
I see my red door and it has been painted black
I see the girls walk by, dressed in their summer clothes
My love will laugh with me before the mornin’ comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
Like a new born baby it just happens every day
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
I see a line of cars and they’re all painted black
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
It’s not easy facin’ up when your whole world is black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
If I look hard enough into the settin’ sun
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
