Paint It Black (Live)

I see a red door and I want to paint it 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're all 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
No colours any more, I want them to turn 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

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

I see a red door and I want to paint it 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
Yeah
Well, I wanna see it painted, yeah, painted black
And the black as night, yeah, and black as coal
I wanna see the sun, sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted
Painted black, yeah
Painted black, yeah
