Black And Whites

So many choices in my life these days So much confusion, so many shades of gray That sometimes I don't know my left from my right But I've got these old black and whites Well, I'm every color that you can paint A father, a lover, a mother and a sinner and a saint From Sunday morning to Saturday night I've got these old black and whites Under the spotlight or all alone at midnight I know I'm right where I belong It always unwinds me, it finds me then reminds me That life is as simple as a song Lovers, they come and surely they go They fly you so high, say hello, say goodbye Leave you low but that's all right here In these songs that I write, right here On these old black and whites Under the spotlight or all alone at midnight I know I'm right where I belong It always unwinds me, it finds me then reminds me That life is as simple as a song So roll over Beethoven 'cause ol' Phil could use a little room I may be out of time an' may be out of tune But you know how it feels to pour out your life Right here on these old black and whites Livin' life in black and white
