I woke up today To everything colored in black I rubbed my eyes But still all the colors were not coming back I walked out of the room Stepping on black grass Black birds They were singing my name A hundred thousand shades of black Have painted this dark Earth While the spring is coming back Black flowers spread their scent But in the distance there's a light A flickering warm white The sky above it is all blue I understand it's you And then I ran I left a black river behind Making my way Through the undergrowth under a black rain When you left me alone All colors have left my soul One by one Till black ruled my world A hundred thousand shades of black Have painted this dark Earth While the spring is coming back Black flowers spread their scent But in the distance there's a light A flickering warm white The sky above it is all blue I understand it's you It's you I know it's you If you'd wait there, I'm coming for you I'd fly if I could Would you help me to bring back the light? The colors of life Since the day you were gone The colors left with you Every day I look outside, just a check And it's all black A hundred thousand shades of black Have painted this dark Earth While the spring is coming back Black flowers spread their scent But in the distance there's a light A flickering warm white The sky above it is all blue I understand it's you
