Black/White Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We are two shadows moving on a wall
Two characters both weak and strong

[Pre-Chorus]
We chant and we dance, we draw ourselves in
Then we run from each other again

[Chorus]
Love is so strange, how we change from day to night
And love is so strange, how we change from black to white
Ever so strange, how we change from day to night (Hey yeah)

[Verse 2]
I draw a picture of your face
Another time, another place

[Pre-Chorus]
We are the ones who fell into this love
We must be in the right place

[Chorus]
Love is so strange, how we change from day to night
Love is so strange, how we change from black to white (Oh, yeah)
Ever so strange, how we change from day to night
That's right, that's right, that's—
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Love is so strange, how we change from day to night
Love is so strange, how we change from black to white
Ever so strange, how we change from day to night
That's right, that's right
I said, love is so strange, love is so strange, love is so strange
Ooh, love is so strange, love, how we change, yeah, yeah
Love is so strange, how we change, we change, we change, we change
How much we change, much we change, yeah, yeah
Love is so strange, how we change from day to night
Love is so strange, how we change from black to white
Ever so strange, how we change from day to night
That's right, that's right, yeah
Love is so strange, how we change from black to white

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
