12. City Of Black & White

City Of Black & White
by Mat Kearney



 

this whole city’s black and white
tell me what is your color
’cause it’d be the same as mine
faded greens and blue street lights
there’s a red fire burning from the sea up to the sky

’cause i don’t want to wait until tomorrow
tell you how i’ll feel the rest of my life
you don’t want to waste another minute
when you realize
walking on the dark side of the evening
maybe it was you that opened my eyes
burning like a fire on the water
in the city of black and white
won’t you just stay
i’m on the top stair looking down
if you’re climbing up to me
it’s where the whole world wants to be found
golden rings and coffee brown
there’s a white flag waving
where my heart is on the ground

won’t you just stay now
where the light goes
under a dark street
no one else knows
take my hand, i’ll carry you
you can carry me

won’t you just stay
won’t you just stay now stay now
stay now when light goes
won’t you just stay
won’t you just stay
