Back To Black Lyrics - Singles - Terry Allen

Every night the same light shines 

From your eyes and back to mine 

With a vision of the love 

We thought was true 

But the darkness of the world out there 

Surrounds the love we thought we shared 

And it all fades back to black 

'Tween me and you 

But me and you were not to blame 

Love always returns from where it came 

Back to black and in the end 

It's all the same 

Now the darkness has slipped inside 

But neither one of us can hide 

Though you act for me 

Just like I act for you 

But when out two fates did cross 

We should have both guessed the cost 

That it all fades back to black 

And nothing's new 

But me and you were not to blame 

Love always returns from where it came 

Back to black and in the end 

It's all the same 

So if some mirror up on the wall 

Reflected the love that we once saw 

We could stand there forever 

And never move 

But love's picture in the glass 

Fades away, it never lasts 

It just all fades back to black 

And nothing's true 

But me and you were not to blame 

Love always returns from where it came 

Back to black and in the end 

It's all the same 

Back to black for me and you 

Is back to blue
