Marian Call - In the Black lyrics

You're in the black, in the black, in the black Ain't it lovely baby, not comin' back You're in the black, ain't you free No more threats, no more debts You're in the black baby, you left it all behind But you're still fine, yeah you're fine, still We wish we could see you We thought you might find time to write us now and then You're free, now and you're lonely We love you but please do not ask us to pretend Come home if you want a friend I'm right on task, since you asked, I'm doing great Really I am, I don't think, I don't blink Just press on press on I'm doing fine, I'm not inclined to crack Any time soon, baby you left us all behind But we're still fine, I swear we're fine, still We cry for no reason Late at night when we run out of thoughtless things to do You're free, now and you're lonely Won't you please come home so we can cry with you I hear that you cry too We cannot bring you back when home's not home We can't make you pay debts you will not own We cannot reason with the unforeseen And we can't compromise when there's no in between But we wanted to see you We thought you might find time to write us now and then You're free, now and you're lonely I love you but please do not ask me to pretend Come home if you want a friend You're free, now and you're lonely We love you but please do not ask us to pretend Come home if you want a friend You're in the black, in the black, in the black Ain't you lovely baby, ain't you free We cry for no reason Late at night when we run out of thoughtless things to do You're free, now and you're lonely Please come home so we can cry with you I hear that you cry too
