I remember colors painted in my eyes
Green was for the springtime
Blue, the summer skies
But now the skies have darkened
The white clouds turn to gray
What a way to break a heart
You took all the colors away

Dark black
Is the color of my life
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Oh, if you come back
Make my whole world bright
Since you've been gone
Dark black is the color of my life

I remember visions
You taught me how to see
The world of your colors
Was right there in front of me
Oh, but what good is a rainbow
If the picture's in black and in white?
Oh, what good is a future
When there's not a color in sight?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone

Oh, if you come back
Make my whole world bright
Since you've been gone
Dark black is the color of my life
Dark black, dark black
Mmh-mmh-mmh
