Lyrics:

I’d like to see you in black

It’d make me feel like your husband’s dead

I’d like to see you in black

We could make him suffer instead



I’d like to see you in black I'd like to see you in black

I’d like to see you in black I'd like to see you in black



You can’t lie to me Ann

You can’t pretend he isn’t beating you up

I saw the marks on your hands

I saw the blood on your coffee cup



I'd like to see you in black I'd like to see you in black

I'd like to see you in black I'd like to see you in black

I'd like to see you in black I'd like to see you in black

I'd like to see you in black

I'd like to see you in black



The wind plucks your black lace gown

You’re standin’ proudly beside his grave

I see you wearing black

Gently smiling and oh so brave



We’ll run away to Greece

We’ll walk the ruins of the Parthenon

We’ll drink ouzo in our tub

Watch the dust billow ’til the night’s gone



I’d like to see you in black I’d like to see you in black

I’d like to see you in black I’d like to see you in black

I’d love to see you in black I’d love to see you in black

I’d like to see you in black

I’d like to see you in black

In black

In black
