Intro

Verse 1

I see a red door and I want it painted black

No colors anymore I want them to turn black

Bridge 1

I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes

  I have to turn my head un-til my darkness goes

Verse 2

I see a line of cars and they are painted black

With flowers and my love both never to come back

Bridge 2

I see people turn their heads and quickly look away

  Like a newborn baby, it just happens every day

Verse 3

I look inside myself and see my heart is black

I see my red door and its heading into black

Bridge 3

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

Bridge 4

If I look hard enough into the setting sun

  My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

"Mm"______________________________

"Mm"______________________________

  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

  Painted, painted, painted black
