Lyrics
I see a red door and I want it painted 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 newborn baby, it just happens every day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
No colors anymore, I must have it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing 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 setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I see a red door and I want it painted 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
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ahah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ahah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ahah, yeah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ahah
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
Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ahah
Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ahah
Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ahah
Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ahah
Writer(s): Mick Jagger, Keith Richards
