U2 — Paint It Black

[Verse 1] I see a red door And I want to paint it 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 [Verse 2] I see a line of cars And they're all painted black With flowers and my love Both never to come back I see them turn their heads Cruelly look away Like a newborn baby It just happens every day [Verse 3] I look inside myself See my heart is back I see my red door And I wanna paint it 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 [Verse 4] 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 [Outro] I wanna see it painted Painted black Black as night I wanna see it painted Painted black Black as coal I wanna see it painted Painted black Black as night I wanna see it painted Painted black Black as coal I wanna see it painted Painted black Black as night I wanna see it painted Painted black Black as coal
