I live my life in black and white
Watching time pass me by
Getting things done
With happiness lost within.

The dullness took over
Because you stole the color
When you left
And said nothing.

My heart remains
But closed for others
Because you stole the key
And locked the gate.

You added color to my black and white world
And took the color with you when you left...
But my heart remains for you.
