ROLLING STONES - Paint it black

I see a red doorAnd I want it painted blackNo colors anymoreI want them to turn black
 
I see the girls walk byDressed in their summer clothesI have to turn my headUntil my darkness goes
 
I see a line of carsAnd they’re all painted blackWith flowers and my loveBoth never to come back
 
I’ve seen people turn their headsAnd quickly look awayLike a newborn babyIt just happens everyday
 
I look inside myselfAnd see my heart is blackI see my red doorI must have it painted black
 
Maybe then, I’ll fade awayAnd not have to face the factsIt’s not easy facing upWhen your whole world is black
 
No more will my green seaGo turn a deeper blueI could not foresee this thingHappening to you
 
If I look hard enoughInto the setting sunMy love will laugh with meBefore the morning comes
 
I see a red doorAnd I want it painted blackNo colors anymoreI want them to turn black
 
I see the girls walk byDressed in their summer clothesI have to turn my headUntil my darkness goes
I wanna see it paintedPainted blackBlack as nightBlack as coalI wanna see the sunBlotted out from the skyI wanna see it painted, painted, paintedPainted black, yeah
