Black, Brown and Gold Songtext
von Peter & Gordon

Black is the color
The color of my lover′s hair
Black as ivory
Shining like ebony

Brown is the color
The color of my lover's eyes
Brown as a berry
Shining like a cherry tree


Black, black, the shining black hair
Brown, brown, her eyes will stare
But those lies, those lies, those lies, those lies are white
White lies
White lies are not nice lies
A cover up to make me blue
The artificial tears that she cries
Aren′t meant for me but you

Gold, gold, shining so bright
Gold ring, a pretty sight

But those lies, those lies, those lies, those lies are white
White lies
White lies are not nice lies
A cover up to make me blue
The artificial tears that she cries
Aren't meant for me but you

Gold is the color
The color of my lover's band
Gold on her finger
But you wouldn′t understand
The ring she′s wearing so shiny and new
Isn't one for me but you


Meant for me but you
Meant for me but you
