[00:03.75]I was looking at the black and white world
[00:06.66]It seemed so exciting
[00:09.99]If you'd only put me back to back with that girl
[00:12.99]When the night's inviting
[00:16.08]With just a little lighting
[00:20.01]There'll never be days like that again
[00:24.27]When I was just a boy and men were men
[00:29.67]You never go from moment to moment
[00:32.40]You're the living double of a single fiction
[00:36.00]You're very colourful with your compliments
[00:39.33]As you feel the finger's friction
[00:42.09]It's a freeze-frame
[00:43.29]Still it's real life
[00:44.58]You don't want to look
[00:45.51]Cause you've seen the film and you've read the book
[00:51.69]I was looking at the black and white world
[00:54.75]Trying to name some pin-up
[00:58.08]Those days she was just a beautiful girl
[01:01.08]Now she's framed and hung up
[01:04.44]I thought she was young
[01:06.18]Up until I saw her last night in close detail
[01:12.60]Though they all fade away when you're so pale
[01:17.76]It's more than just a physical attraction
[01:20.52]It starts with a face and ends up a fixation
[01:24.27]But you're never gonna feel a fraction
[01:26.52]Of the way it used to work on your imagination
[01:33.63]When you were looking at the black and white world...
