I see a red door and I want it painted black.

No colours anymore I want them to turn black.
Em Em D D G G D D Em Em
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes.
Em Em D D G G D D A A B B
I have to turn my head un-til my darkness goes.

Verse:
Em Em B B
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black.
Em Em B B
With flowers and by love both never to come back.
Em Em D D G G D D Em Em
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away.
Em Em D D G G D D A A B B
Like a new born baby it just happens every day.

I look inside myself and see my heart is black.

I see my red door and I want it painted black.

Maybe then I'll fade a-way 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 forsee this thing happening to you.

If I look hard e-nough in-to the setting sun
Em Em D D G G D D A A B B
My love will laugh with me be-fore the morning comes.
