[English]

Black and white

But nothing in this world can shine as bright as those green eyes

It's hard to recognize you now

In a past life, I'd wear make-up in case you were passing by

It's hard to recognize me now

That black coffee tastes so good when you're around

I climb the steps past cigarettes, where are you now?

You got so high, you're not coming down

Is it better now?

I hope you're better now

You begged me not to forget you

But how could I?

You're unforgettable (you, ooh-ooh, oh)

You're unforgettable (you, ooh-ooh, oh)

You're unforgettable (you, ooh-ooh, oh)

You're unforgettable

Last time, you walked out my door

I swore this would be the last time

But now that you're not around

I cry, my make-up's all messed up, I didn't lie

What would I give to talk right now?

That black coffee tastes so good when you're around

I climb the steps past cigarettes, where are you now?

Oh, you got so high, you're not coming down

Is it better now?

I hope you're better now

You begged me not to forget you

But how can I?

You're unforgettable (you, ooh-ooh, oh)

You're unforgettable (you, ooh-ooh, oh)

No, oh

You're unforgettable (you, ooh-ooh, oh)

You're unforgettable

I wish we had the time to say (oh)

I wish we had more time to waste (oh)

I wish I didn't have to break for you to hear me

I wish we had the time to say (more time)

I wish we had more time to waste (oh, yeah)

I wish I didn't have to break for you to hear me

Hey

Ooh, no, no

Ahh, uh

Ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

...

Oh-oh-oh, mm
