I Was Looking At The Black And White World
It Seemed So Exciting
If You'd Only Put Me Back To Back With That Girl
When The Night's Inviting
With Just A Little Lighting
There'll Never Be Days Like That Again
When I Was Just A Boy And Men Were Men
You Never Go From Moment To Moment
You're The Living Double Of A Single Fiction
You're Very Colourful With Your Compliments
As You Feel The Finger's Friction
It's A Freeze-frame
Still It's Real Life
You Don't Want To Look
Cause You've Seen The Film And You've Read The Book
I Was Looking At The Black And White World
Trying To Name Some Pin-up
Those Days She Was Just A Beautiful Girl
Now She's Framed And Hung Up
I Thought She Was Young
Up Until I Saw Her Last Night In Close Detail
Though They All Fade Away When You're So Pale
It's More Than Just A Physical Attraction
It Starts With A Face And Ends Up A Fixation
But You're Never Gonna Feel A Fraction
Of The Way It Used To Work On Your Imagination
When You Were Looking At The Black And White World...
