Paint It Black
(M. Jagger/K. Richards)
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 new born baby it just happens ev'ry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' 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 settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' 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,...
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!

Maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
I got to go on anyway
I'm finding it hard to try and play the right card
And woman you're getting in my way
Oh, you don't think it matters at all
No, you don't think it matters at all
No, you don't think it matters at all
I'm working all night, you know I'm working all night
Trying to get something out of my head
I live for the day when everybody will say
It's better than all of the rest
Oh, you don't think it matters at all
No, you don't think it matters at all
No, you don't think it
