Black Celebration

written by Martin Gore

Let's have a Black Celebration,
Black Celebration tonight.

To celebrate the fact,
That we've seen the back,
Of another black day.

I look to you,
How you carry on,
When all hope is gone,
Can't you see?

Your optimistic eyes,
Seem like Paradise,
To someone like,
Me.

I want to take you in my arms,
Forgetting all I couldn't do today.

Black Celebration,
Black Celebration tonight.

To celebrate the fact,
That we've seen the back,
Of another black day.

I look to you,
And your strong belief,
Me?
I want relief tonight.

Consolation,
I want so much,
Want to feel your touch,
Tonight.

Take me in your arms,
Forgetting all you couldn't do today.

Black Celebration,
Black Celebration tonight.

Black Celebration,
I'll drink to that,
Black Celebration tonight.

Black Celebration,
I'll drink to that,
Black Celebration tonight.
