Dressed in Black Songtext
von Ezra Furman

Dressed in black
You′re always dressed in black
And you come to me by night beneath my windowsill

And you're always dressed in black
And you say, "Don′t make a sound"
You leave before the sun comes up, my love

Haunted eyes (la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
You've got those haunted eyes (la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
And your lips don't move, but I can hear you talk to me

And I watch your haunted eyes (doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo)
As they look out at the world (doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo)
The world that never cared at all for us


Babe, I know our time will come
We′ll run away
When we get the money saved
We′ll run away into the sun
Stockpile supplies, my knives, your gun
You'll call my name and I will come
You′ll run with me

But until then
We'll just be dressed in black
We′ll meet beneath my windowsill in silhouette

And we'll both be dressed in black (doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo)
And we′ll hold our weapons close (doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo)
We'll dream away the nights, my only love

(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)

(Okay)
