Brown, Black And Gold

(الألبوم: Woman - 1966)

Black is the colour
The colour of my lover's hair
Black as ivory
Shining like ebony

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

Black, black, the shining black hair
Brown, brown, her eyes were staring
But those lies, those lies, those lies, those lies
They're 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 brick, a pretty sight
But those lies, those lies, those lies, those lies
They're 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 colour
The colour of my lover's band
Gold on her finger
But you wouldn't understand

The ring she's wearing
So shiny and new
Is worn for me but you
Meant for me but you
Meant for me but you
