Red as roses come,
My love it never was.
Dark as the evening sky,
We let love pass us by.
I was caught in the middle,
Somewhere in the gray.
Now it's time to leave that all behind,
My uncertain yesterdays.

Now it's black or white,
Now it's wrong or right,
I can't live without you here.
Shades of the past - are long gone,
I've got one thing on my mind.
There's a choice to make,
There'll be no mistake,
The time has come around,
I'm leaving no - middle ground,
Let my heart be the only sound.

Pink is not red or white,
But you brought me pink roses tonight.
And I got to thinking to myself,
Oh the time is right.
A promise is stronger,
Than a whisper.
So I say goodbye to our yesterday,
And leave behind those shades of grey.

'Cause it's black or white,
Now it's wrong or right,
I can't live without you here.
Shades of the past - are long gone,
I've got one thing on my mind.
There's a choice to make,
There'll be no mistake,
The time has come around,
I'm leaving no - middle ground,
Let my heart be the only sound.

Now it's black or white,
Now it's wrong or right,
I can't live without you here.
Shades of the past - are long gone,
I've got one thing on my mind.
There's a choice to make,
There'll be no mistake,
The time has come around,
I'm leaving no - middle ground,
Let my heart be the only sound.

Now it's black or white,
Now it's wrong or right,
I can't live without you here.
Shades of the past - are long gone,
I've got one thing - on my mind.
There's a choice to make,
There'll be no mistake,
The time has come around,
I'm leaving no - middle ground,
Let my heart be the only - only sound.

Oh there's a choice to make,
There'll be no mistake,
The time has come around,
I'm leaving no - middle ground,
Let my heart be the only - sound.
