I see a red door and I want it paint it black 
No colors anymore, 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 the people turn their heads and look away 
Like a new born baby, it just happens ev'ry day 

I look inside myself and see my heart is black 
I see a red door, I must have it painted black 
Maybe then I'll fade away, and not have to face the fact(s) 
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black 

(guitar solo) 

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 settin' sun 
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes 

I see a red door and I want it paint it black 
No colors anymore, 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 wanna see you painted black 
Black as the night, black 
I wanna so black, I can't see 
Don't wanna see no more black, painted black, painted black 
Oh, yeah, baby 
Hmm, hmm, hmm 

(guitar solo)
