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