City of Black & White- Mat Kearney

This whole city's black and white
Tell me what is your color
'Cause it'd be the same as mine

Faded greens and blue street lights
There's a red fire burning from the sea up to the sky

'Cause I don't want to wait until tomorrow
Tell you how I'll feel, the rest of my life
You don't want to waste another minute when you realize
Walking on the dark side of the evening
Maybe it was you that opened my eyes
Burning like a fire on the water
In the city of black and white
Won't you just stay
Won't you just stay

I'm on the top stair looking down
If you're climbing up to me
It's where the whole world wants to be found
Golden rings and coffee brown
There's a white flag waving
Where my heart is on the ground

'Cause I don't want to wait until tomorrow
Tell you how I feel, the rest of my life
You don't want to waste another minute when you realize
Walking on the dark side of the evening
Maybe it was you who opened my eyes
Burning like a fire on the water
In the city of black and white
Won't you just stay
Won't you just stay

Won't you just stay now where the light goes
Under a dark street, no one else knows
Take my hand I'll carry you, you can carry me

'Cause I don't want to wait until tomorrow
Tell you how I feel, the rest of my life
You don't want to waste another minute when you realize
Walking on the dark side of the evening
Maybe it was you who opened my eyes
Burning like a fire on the water
In the city of black and white
Won't you just stay
Won't you just stay

Won't you just stay now, stay now, stay now when light goes
Won't you just stay
Won't you just stay...
