TV in Black and White
Lana Del Rey · Other Songs - Lana Del Rey
Prison isn't going to keep me from you
Remember Coney Island and how we
Went into the water 'til the waves turned blue
Nobody does have to know
That our love's alive
Keep it under low, if you want to hide
Got that same address if you want to write
On Greenwich Avenue
Wishing and thinkin' of you
Living without you is like TV in black and white
You turned me on and brought color into my life
When I'm around you, suddenly I realize
That I was blind before I saw the world through your eyes
If you get lonely, think of this only
Heaven hasn't forgotten about you
Though you can't hold me, pick up and phone me
Use your one phone call on your ex-girl, boo
I won't tell a single soul how you spend your nights
In that single cell, holding your pillow tight
If you really are afraid, then you ought to know
That you're the one I want
The one I want, forevermore
Living without you is like TV in black and white
You turned me on and brought color into my life
When I'm around you, suddenly I realize
That I was blind before I saw the world through your eyes
I know you get scared sometimes, boy
Nothing to be feared when you're in my heart
Troubles come in threes, but in your case
They came in millions, and trillions, but that's all right
Living without you is like TV in black and white
You turned me on and brought color into my life
When I'm around you, suddenly I realize
That I was blind before I saw the world through your eyes
Like TV in black and white
Like TV in black and white
Like TV in black and white
Like TV in black and white
TV in Black and White
