I see your red door I say paint it black
No colour in my life, so just turn it black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I'm gonna turn my head 'til the darkness goes
See this line of cars, they're all painted black
Dead flowers & my love, both never to come back
You people, turn your heads, quick now, look away
Like the newborn babies that just happen everyday
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 shade deeper blue
Maybe now this dark thing starts happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love be laughing at me before the morning comes
I wanna see you baby, 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
