Lyrics
MY LIFE IN BLACK AND WHITE
(Claire Ulanoff)
Got a letter from my buddy back in Boston
That?s not like him, he hardly ever writes
But he was all torn up ?bout how this time he?s lost her
And how?s he supposed to get on with his life
He said she finally had enough of his drinking
And of having to excuse his wild ways
The letter said she gave up ever thinking
That he?d want her enough to want to change
Ain?t that my life in black and white
The hurtful things he did, I?ve done too
I saw my life in black and white
And realized why I?m losing you
All the times I did you wrong
Why we went from love to gone
The truth can?t be denied
Yeah, that?s my life in black and white
Well my hands began to shake as I was reading
I have to tell you now before you go
Girl, I?ll never make it if you?re leaving
It took my seeing it on that page to know
(chorus)
That?s my life in black and white
