You're something that you are
Makes me weak inside
Like I'm some unknown
But not to let you go
And the chance it will hurt you
Is making me mad
Cause, you're on your own
And it's not enough
To say that I care
It changes night to day
Too much
Oh, I just can't take it
Black and blue
Colours of love - pain that we live for
Black and blue
I keep thinking of you
And the things that we went through
An easy thing to do
Be to put it behind
Like it wasn't there
Too much to ask, too soon
Oh, please can you wait
So I can show you I care
No guarantees
The true test is time
That can save you and me
If I can shake this thing
Who's to say
If the world's for the taking
Black and blue
Colours of love - pain that we live for
Black and blue
I keep thinking of you
And the things that we went through
Believe me baby when I tell you
That you make love that fine
Sit around and bitch and
Still I'm going out of my mind
All that I know is that I want
To chase after you
And I don't know why
But I want to hold onto you
Black and blue
Colours of love - pain that we live for
Black and blue
I keep thinking of you
And the things that we went through
Black and blue
Yeah!
Colours of love - pain that we live for
Black and blue
I keep thinking of you
And the things that we went through
Black and blue
Black and blue
Black and blue
One more time
Black and blue
