[Verse 1] Do you ever put something on a list just to check it off? Simple pleasures like decent weather Do you ever set alarms in your sleep so you don't have to dream? Who would do such a silly thing? [Hook] I'm a character in black and white I see color and I feel so shy Break my silence but don't rush me [Verse 2] Do you ever entertain someone new And in a day or two, take your chances and endure glances? Do you ever have it all in your palm and think that's what you want? Quite romantic, but I resent it [Hook] Cause I'm a character in black and white I see color and I feel so shy Break my silence but don't rush me
