Black is Black
Los BravosBlack is black
I want my baby
It's grey, it's grey
Since she went
Oh oh, what can I do??
'Cause I-I-I-I-I
I'm feelin'
If I my way
She'd be back
But she don't
To see me again
Oh oh, what can I do?
'Cause I-I-I-I-I
I'm feelin' blue
I can't
It's too much to
My love's too
Maybe if
Would come back to me
Then I can't go
Bad is bad
That I feel so sad
It's time, it's time
That I found of mind
Oh oh, what can I do?
'Cause I-I-I-I-I
I'm feelin' blue
I can't choose
It's too much to lose
my love's too strong.
Maybe she
Would come back to me
Then I can't go wrong
Black is black
I want my baby back.
It's gray, it's gray,
Since she went away
Bad is bad
That I feel so sad
It's time, it's time
That I found peace of mind
Oh oh, what can I do? 'Cause I-I-I-I-I I'm feelin' blue
This colorful song finds the singer utterly flummoxed by a girl who has left him. He wants her back, then reconsiders, since she'll only leave him again, putting him in even greater misery. Upon further reflection, he thinks maybe it would work out after all if she returned. She's not coming back, of course, but he seems to feel better believing he has a choice.
