Paint It Black

Lyricist:Mick Jagger, Keith Richards

I see a red door and I want to paint it black
No colors in my life, you better turn them black
I see people walking by dressed in their colorful clothes
I see them strolling by, my happiness to the floor

No more will my gray sea turn a deeper blue
I cannot foresee this thing happening to you, no
I see people walking by dressed in their summer clothes
I see them strolling by, my happiness to the floor

Turn it black, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I said I know baby everything is black I know
Since you been gone everything is black before my eyes
Baby everything is black I know turn to me

And help me see again baby help me walk once more
And help me talk again, walk again stand up like a man baby
Since you been gone, gone there is no color in my life baby
It's turning so very very gone black

Humph, I walk down the street and I see a line of cars
Maybe blue, maybe brown, maybe green but their turning black
Before my very eyes and you could not know
What it's like when your whole world is black
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
When everything you see and touch turns so very very black

Oh baby now I need you by my side bring some color into my life
Once again, even tripped down and fell
Didn't see no colors anymore baby
Bad, bad scene and I have to tell you baby

No more will my gray sea go turn a deeper blue
I cannot foresee this thing ever happening to you, no
I see people walking by me they're all going in different directions
I see them strolling by and my heart splinters like a flame

Turning black baby turning black I know everything
Since you've been gone is turning black, turning black
Turning black, turning black, turning black
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, baby

Oh Lord, oh babe, whoa Lord, help me see again, baby
Help me walk, talk, walk stand up like a man I know
Need you standing by my side because I'm blind and I cannot see
Color blind I'm color blind paint everything so black
Go ahead and paint it black baby everything is black black black
It's turning black I know need some color in my life
