Black Celebration

Written by Martin Gore

Intro
Let's have a black celebration
Black celebration, tonight
To celebrate the fact that we've seen the back
Of another black day

Verse 1
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

Chorus
Black celebration
Black celebration
Tonight
To celebrate the fact, that we've seen the back
Of another black day

Verse 2
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

Chorus
Black celebration
I'll drink to that
Black celebration
Tonight
