Black and White World

I used to see in color But now it's only black and white Black and white I used to hear your voice But now I can't make out the sound Not a sound And in the solitude I've crafted for myself I cry a single tear for beauty left unfelt I used to smell your presence Like fragrant roses on the wind The sweetest fruit is tasteless I reach to touch, but nothing's there I'm grasping only air And in the emptiness felt deep inside I search for memories of what real life was like When hope is gone and love has died There's only emptiness inside And all the colors drain from sight My world is left in black and white My hands reach for you Can't you feel them Don't you know I'm there Your heart is holding back Let it go And feel the love rush in Don't think about the future Don't think about the past Just hold the moment next to you And make it last Let me in This is too good to be wrong Make me live again And I will make you whole Run together, along the beach Tumble laughing That dream's not out of reach for me Fading shadows on the sand Don't give up now Simply put your hand in mine At the ocean, touch the sea Feel my presence As though you're standing next to me On other shores, where you're my girl And pull me out of this black and white world Take my hand now, hold it tight Feel my presence And know that it will be all right At the ocean, touch the sea Feel my heartbeat And know that this was meant to be Love will lead with us in tow No more obstacles Ahead is just the open road Color overcomes this night My world's no longer black and white Black and white world
