Lyrics

Back When The World Was Black And White

Verse#1
So when did I become
This empty shell that?s so numb
I?m glued to my T.V
Watching NBC
And the world come undone

P/C
Wish I could just kick back and laugh
Instead of cry
Trade in my high tech wide screen
For a simpler time

Chorus:
Back when the world was black and white
And a strong line defined wrong from right
I don?t recall seeing blood on grandma?s T.V
Night after night
Back when the world was in black and white

Verse#2
I miss the innocence
Of how kids grew up back when
They learned to love and trust
A handshake was enough
And a friend was your friend

P/C
Wish I could just turn down the sound
Of all this hate
Is there just no way
To turn it off today

Chorus:
Back when the world was black and white
And a strong line defined wrong from right
I don?t recall seeing blood on grandma?s T.V
Night after night
Back when the world was in black and white

Bridge:
It?s hard to watch so many people
Livin? in such pain
If God is watching over us
Is he thinking the same thing

Chorus Repeat/Out
