Rolling Stones, The - Paint It Black Lyrics






I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by, dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby, it just happens everyday

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and must have it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by, dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

Hmm, hmm, hmm...

I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black

Yeah!

Hmm, hmm, hmm...

  3. G.... H....

    Smoke The Weed.

  4. M.... 4....

    I got the fing rap paint it black Pepsi ad

  5. P.... R....

    Black paint exists

    Red door:
    *ah shit here we go again*

  6. T.... Q....

    Reminds me of 'Tour of duty', late 80s series about Vietnam starring Terence Knox, good show back then.

  7. R.... S....

    My darkest song

  8. a.... a....

    *h o w d a r e y o u*

  9. J.... T....

    You talking with your
    Friends and you thought your other friend was behind you
    And the stranger sneezed at you
    And you said you went to far then all your friends started laughing
    At you how would you feel😶😶😶

  10. H.... ....

    This is my most favorite song from birth all the way up to 14

  11. B.... J....

    Listened to this song when i was a kid brings back good memories

  12. D.... ....

    Imagine having a red door,



    Black door gang

  13. J.... R....

    My mom what wall paper should we do? Teen me. I want it painted black

  14. s.... c....

    Who else is here from the cod trailer

  15. J.... S....

    Who came from Pepsi throwing shade to Coca Cola

  16. M.... ....

    hermoso

  17. M.... S....

  18. M.... M....

  19. A.... T....

    Yooo...I couldn't be the only one who only recognized the instrumental intro 😭🤣

  20. G.... G....

    This reminded me of cod zombies 😞 “rip primos crew”

  21. L.... ....

    When you come back to home from paintball match

  22. C.... K....

    The super bowl commercial with Pepsi is just a disgrace to this song

  23. F.... G....

    The introduction of this song is the same as a etude by Mauro Giuliano from the 16th century
    The classical guirar inspired too many modern musicians

  24. K.... v....

    Не увидел ни одного русского коммента.
    Не справедливо.
    Великая песня великой группы.
    А больше и нечего сказать
    Разве что ловлю с нее вьетнамские флешбеки (спс "конфликт: Вьетнам")

  25. e.... ....

    when your playing mafia III

  27. C.... M....

    I hate the rolling stones but to songs I like are I can't get no satisfaction and the fricen amazing song

  28. J.... L....

    One of Charlie's finest cuts, IMO. He's rock-steady and jazz nuanced; gave the Stones deep Pop swing, or something. No wonder M&K forbid him to leave.

  55. A.... A....

    Some say to this day no one knows what the door did to make him want it painted black.

  56. 6.... P....

    Ok I hate the "Who came here from--" comments, but every time I hear the intro I think of the game "Twisted Metal: Black" and I instantly wanna drive a juiced up ice cream truck with a demon clown inside and destroy a city.

  57. R.... W....

  72. T.... C....

    When the red starts speaking black

  73. T.... J....

    One of the greatest from the greatest rs

  74. C.... N....

    This song is is about a dude who has lost a wife or girlfriend. That Why he can't look at other girls. The line of black cars, at a funeral.. He doesn't want to feel anything he just wants everything to be black. He wants to kill himself so he could be with the girl he loves. His love holding flowers never to come back... Again his love died. If he looks hard enough into the setting sun the he will be able to laugh with his love till morning comes... The setting sun means the day is ending but he means it that he want to end his life to be with his love.

  75. P.... O....

    This song is what Napalm sounds like.

  78. J.... R....

    Who’s here from the Pepsi Super Bowl Commercial

  79. R.... M....

    If I sing this in public I would be considered racist 🙍🏾‍♀️ man I love this song and I'm not racist

    R.... M....

    How is this song racist? 2nd comment I have seen mentioning this.

    R.... M....

    Brayden Garrett it mentions the word “black” therefore it’s racist

    R.... M....

    The song isn't racist because a white person made it but if I sing it in public I might be apparently racist because I'm a black person it would be like a white person singing paint it , white even though the song is about depression

  80. R.... E....

    I'm in a world of shit, yes. But i'm alive. And i'm not afraid....
