Black Beauty
Lyrics of Black Beauty by Lana Del Rey
Verse
I paint my nails black
I dye my hair a darker shade of brown
′Cause you like your women Spanish, dark, strong and proud
I paint the sky black
You said if you could have your way
You'd make it nighttime all today
So it′d suit the mood with your soul
Pre-chorus
Oh, what can I do?
Nothing, my sparrow blue
Chorus
Oh, what can I do?
Life is beautiful, but you don't have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
Their magnificence, it don't make sense to you
Hook
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Verse
I paint the house black
My wedding dress black leather too
You have no room for light, love is lost on you
I keep my lips red
To seem like cherries in the spring
Darling, you can′t let everything seem so dark blue
Pre-chorus
But oh, what can I do
To turn you on or get through you?
Chorus
Oh, what can I do?
Life is beautiful, but you don′t have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
Their magnificence, it don't make sense to you
Hook
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Bridge
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, baby
Black beauty, baby
Chorus
Oh, what can I do?
Life is beautiful, but you don′t have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
Their magnificence, it don't make sense to you
Outro
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
