Lyrics
I see a red door
I say, "Paint it black"
No colour in my life
So just turn it black
I see the girls walkin' by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I'm gonna turn my head
'Til the darkness goes
See this line of cars
They're all painted black
Dead flowers and my love
Both never to come back
You people turn your heads
Quick now, look away!
Like a newborn baby
Is it just happen (happened everyday) everyday
I look inside myself
And see my heart is black
I see my red door
I must have it painted black
Maybe then, I'll fade away
And not face the facts
It's not easy facing up
When your whole world is black
No more will my green sea shade a deeper blue
Maybe now this dark thing
Will start happening to you
If I look hard enough
Into the setting sun
My love is laughing at me
Before the morning comes
I wanna see it, baby
Paint it black
Black as night
Black as coal
Wanna see the sun (paint it black, paint it black)
Blotted out from the sky (paint it black, paint it black)
Wanna see it painted (paint it black), painted (paint it black)
Painted, painted black (paint it black, paint it black), yeah
