Lyrics
This whole city's black and white
Tell me what is your color
Could it 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
To tell you how I 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
Baby, it was you who opened my eyes
Burning like a fire on the water
In the city of black and white
Won't you just stay?
Won't you just stay?
I'm on the top step looking down
And their coming up to me
It's where the whole world wants to be found
Golden rings and coffee brown
There's white flag waving
Where my heart is on the ground
'Cause I don't want to wait until tomorrow
Tell you how I 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
Baby, 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?
Won't you just stay?
Won't you just stay now?
Where the light glows
Under a dark street
No one else knows
So take my hands
I'll carry you, you can carry me
'Cause I don't want to wait until tomorrow
Tell you how I 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
Baby, 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?
Won't you just stay?
Won't you just stay now?
Stay now
Stay now when the light glows
Won't you just stay?
Won't you just stay?
'Cause I don't want to wait until tomorrow
To tell you how I'd 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
Baby, 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?
Won't you just stay?
