[Verse 1]

You see the world in black and white

No colour or light

You think you'll never get it right

But you're wrong, you might

The sky could fall, could fall on me

The parting of the seas (The seas, the seas, the seas)

But you mean more, mean more to me (To me, to me, to me)

Than any colour I can see

[Chorus]

All you ever wanted was love, but you never looked hard enough

It's never gonna give itself up

All you ever wanted to be, livin' in perfect symmetry

Nothin' is as down or up as us

As us

[Verse 2]

You see the world in black and white

Not painted right

You see no meaning to your life

You should try

You should try

[Chorus]

And all you ever wanted was love, but you never looked hard enough

It's never gonna give itself up

And all you ever wanted to be, livin' in perfect symmetry

Nothin' is as down or up as us

[Bridge]

And don't you wanna see it come soon

Floatin' in a big white balloon?

Or given on your own silver spoon?

Don't you wanna see it come down

There for throwin' your arms around

And say, "You're not a moment too soon"?

[Outro]

'Cause I feel low

'Cause I feel low, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, I feel low, oh no

Oh-oh

Oh-oh, 'cause I feel low

'Cause I feel low, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

But I feel low, oh no

Oh-oh
