My Name Is The Night (Color Me Black)

Can you give me something
Tonight I'm so alone
The moon is upside down hanging on a telephone
But I remember every little bad dream
Every pretty slow dance
So can I pick you up later when your temperature's better
If you need a little shelter be your cool operator
Keep it all quiet yeah just a little longer
Let the night wind you down baby down
And she smiles how 'bout that
I was just about to jump before you called me back
And you know the pain comes home
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
And I've lost so much more than I ever had
Now my name is the night honey color me black
C-color me black
Can I take you somewhere
Would it make a difference
Like pretty roses on a deathbed
But I remember you in your white dress
In your mama's hands
So can I pick you up later
When your temperature's better
If you need a little shelter be your cool operator
Keep it all quiet yeah just a little longer
Let the night wind us down baby down
And she smiles how 'bout that
I was just about to jump before you called me back
But you know the pain comes home
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
And I've lost so much more than I ever had
Now my name is the night honey color me black
C-color me black
And how long how long until you believe that part of me is gone
With your sweet naive kiss
Well I used to feel the same until I let the darkness in
And it costs me nothing baby nah nothing more than this
Nothing more than this useless heart in my chest
Nothing that I needed nothing I regret
Nothing that I needed and I'd do it all again
I'd do it all again
And she smiles how 'bout that
I was just about to jump before you called me back
But you know the pain comes home
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
Singing ooh not just yet
When I go I'll be going out in flames and fiery wrecks
And the quiet to me such an ominous sound
Said my name is the nighttime now
Yes the quiet to me such an ominous sound
And my name is the night honey color me black
