I see a red door and 
I want it painted black
No colours any more
I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by
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 
I want 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 colours any more
I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by
in their summer clothes 
I have to turn my head 
until my darkness goes
