Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Your eyes may be whole
But the story I'm told
Is your heart is as black as night
[Verse 2]
Your lips may be sweet
Such that I can't compete
But your heart is as black as night
[Verse 3]
I don't know why you came along
At such a perfect time
But if I let you hang around
I'm bound to lose my mind
[Verse 4]
'Cause your hands may be strong
But the feeling's all wrong
Your heart is as black as night
[Verse 5]
I don't know why you came along
At such a perfect time
But if I let you hang around
I'm bound to lose my mind
[Verse 6]
'Cause your hands may be strong
But the feeling's all wrong
Your heart is as black
Your heart is as black
Oh, your heart is as black as night
