Lyrics[]
- I see a red door and I want it painted 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 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
- I see my red door I must have it painted 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 it painted 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
- Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
- I wanna see it painted, painted black
- Black as night, black as coal
- I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
- I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
- Yeah!
- Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm...
