I Never Wear White - Suzanne Vega (苏珊·薇格)

I never wear white

White is for virgins

Children in summer

Brides in the park

My color is black black black

Black is for secrets

Outlaws and dancers

For the poet of the dark

Black is the truth

Of my situation

And for those of my station

In life All other colors

Lie

I never wear white

White is too blinding

Always reminding

Of the innocent who fall

My color is black black black

For the crone and the bastard

The schoolgirl in uniform

The servant in the hall

Black is the truth

Of my situation

And for those of my station

In life All other colors

Lie

My color is black black black

Like the gangster and widow

It's the shade and the shadow

It's the depth into your eye

My color is black black black black black
