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
