Lyrics

I see a red door and I want it painted black No colours any more, 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 are 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 I see my red door, and it's heading into 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 I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black, oh baby I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black, oh baby 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 And I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black Oh, black as night black as coal I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky Painted, painted, painted black, oh baby Painted, painted, painted black
