Black and White World

I used to see in color
 But now it's only black and white
 Black and white
 I used to hear your voice
 But now I can't make out the sound
 Not a sound
 And in the solitude I've crafted for myself
 I cry a single tear for beauty left unfelt
 I used to smell your presence
 Like fragrant roses on the wind
 The sweetest fruit is tasteless
 I reach to touch, but nothing's there
 I'm grasping only air
 And in the emptiness felt deep inside
 I search for memories of what real life was like
 When hope is gone and love has died
 There's only emptiness inside
 And all the colors drain from sight
 My world is left in black and white
 My hands reach for you
 Can't you feel them
 Don't you know I'm there
 Your heart is holding back
 Let it go
 And feel the love rush in
 Don't think about the future
 Don't think about the past
 Just hold the moment next to you
 And make it last
 Let me in
 This is too good to be wrong
 Make me live again
 And I will make you whole
 Run together, along the beach
 Tumble laughing
 That dream's not out of reach for me
 Fading shadows on the sand
 Don't give up now
 Simply put your hand in mine
 At the ocean, touch the sea
 Feel my presence
 As though you're standing next to me
 On other shores, where you're my girl
 And pull me out of this black and white world
 Take my hand now, hold it tight
 Feel my presence
 And know that it will be all right
 At the ocean, touch the sea
 Feel my heartbeat
 And know that this was meant to be
 Love will lead with us in tow
 No more obstacles
 Ahead is just the open road
 Color overcomes this night
 My world's no longer black and white
 Black and white world
