Black Is Black, I want my baby back
And gray is gray since she went away
Oh oh, what can I do, cause I, I'm feeling blue

If I had my way, she'd be here today
But she'd go in time and leave me to cry again
Oh no, what can I do, cause I, I'm feeling blue

I can't choose, there's too much to lose
My love's too strong
Maybe if she would come back to me
Then I can't go wrong

Bad is bad, that I feel so sad
It's time, it's time, that I found peace of mind
Oh oh, what can I do, cause I, I'm feeling blue

I can't choose, there's too much to lose
My love's too strong
Maybe if she would come back to me
Then I can't go wrong

Black Is Black, I want my baby back
And gray is gray since she went away
Oh oh what can I do, cause I, I'm feeling blue
Cause I, I'm feeling blue, cause I, I'm feeling blue

Rick Springfield

Rick Springfield (born Richard Lewis Springthorne, 23 August 1949) is an Australian musician and actor. In his teenage years he lived in England where he joined various bands. In 1968, Pete Watson invited him to join Rockhouse (the name of the group was soon changed to MPD Ltd). After a tour in South Vietnam Springfield and the drummer Danny Finley formed Wickedly Wak.

In September 1969, Rick replaced Roger Hicks in the pop rock group Zoot. He had written various songs before the band broke up. Springfield commenced his solo career signing with Sparmac Records. In 1973, he started performing for Columbia Records. He released his best-known hit, “Jessie’s Girl”, in 1981 in the album Working Class Dog, and continues recording music nowadays.

Springfield is also known for performances in several TV series. He made his acting debut in 1977 in The Six Million Dollar Man. Since then, he appeared in shows including General Hospital, Legion, and Hawaii Five-0.
