I´d like to see you in black
It´d make me feel like your husband´s dead
I´d like to see you in black
We could make him suffer instead

I´d like to see you in black I´d like to see you in black
I´d like to see you in black I´d like to see you in black

You can´t lie to me Ann
You can´t pretend he isn´t beating you up
I saw the marks on your hands
I saw the blood on your coffee cup

I´d like to see you in black I´d like to see you in black
I´d like to see you in black I´d like to see you in black
I´d like to see you in black I´d like to see you in black
I´d like to see you in black
I´d like to see you in black

The wind plucks your black lace gown
You´re standin´ proudly beside his grave
I see you wearing black
Gently smiling and oh so brave

We´ll run away to Greece
We´ll walk the ruins of the Parthenon
We´ll drink ouzo in our tub
Watch the dust billow ´til the night´s gone

I´d like to see you in black I´d like to see you in black
I´d like to see you in black I´d like to see you in black
I´d love to see you in black I´d love to see you in black
I´d like to see you in black
I´d like to see you in black
In black
In black
