This whole city's black and white
|
Tell me what is your color.
|
Could it be the same as mine?
|
Faded greens and blue street lights,
|
There's a red fire burning
|
In the sea up to the sky.
|
|
I don't want to wait until tomorrow
|
To tell you how I'd feel the rest of my life
|
You don't want a waste another minute to realize
|
Walking on the dark side of the evening
|
Baby it is you, that opened my eyes
|
Burning like a fire on the water
|
The city of black and white.
|
Won't you just stay?
|
Won't you just stay?
|
|
I'm on the top step looking down
|
And their coming up to me
|
It's where the whole world wants to be found
|
Golden rings and coffee brown
|
There's white flag waving
|
Where my heart is on the ground.
|
|
I don't want to wait until tomorrow
|
To tell you how I'd feel the rest of my life
|
You don't want a waste another minute to realize
|
Walking on the dark side of the evening
|
Baby it is you that opened my eyes
|
Burning like a fire on the water
|
The city of black and white.
|
Won't you just stay?
|
Won't you just stay?
|
|
Won't you just stay now
|
With the lightpoles
|
Over a dark street
|
No one else knows
|
So take my hands
|
I'll carry you, you can carry me.
|
|
'Cause I don't want to wait until tomorrow
|
To tell you how I'd feel the rest of my life
|
