Elvis Costello - Black And White World Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I was looking at the black and white world
  • it seemed so exciting
  • if you'd only put me back to back with that girl
  • when the night's inviting
  • with just a little lighting
  • there'll never be days like that again
  • when I was just a boy and men were men
  • you'd never go from moment to moment
  • you're the living double of a single fiction
  • you're the very colour poets compliment
  • cause you feel the fingers friction
  • it's a freeze frame, still it's real life
  • you don't want to look
  • cause you've seen the film and read the book
  • I was looking at the black and white world
  • trying to name some pin-up
  • in those days she was just a beautiful girl
  • now she's framed and hung up
  • I thought she was younger until
  • I saw her last night in close detail
  • though they all fade away when you're so pale
  • it's more than just a physical attraction
  • starts with a face and ends up a fixation
  • but you're never going to feel a fraction
  • the way it used to work on your imagination
  • when you were looking at a black and white world
