Paint It Black

Paint It Black


Sometimes I miss your smile
On a beautiful sunny day
With butterflies and birds
In the late days of May

Sometimes I can't remember
How pretty it was that day
With the long lonely years
Memories slip slowly away

So I paint the trees
And all the leaves

The color of my world

Sometimes I miss your eyes
On a beautiful rainy day
With the rumble of thunder
The whole world seems grey

Sometimes I can't remember
How pretty they were that day
When I turned from the rain
Pearls that stole my heart away

So I paint the trees
And all the leaves

The color of my world
