Wonderful Grey Lyrics

Windowed wall, bewitching view

A strike splits the sky in two

Yesterday a blue hombre

Now it looks as though a storm's broke through

Adrift ashore our tattered plan

Washed away like so much sand

Darkest day, black overlay

Bleached us blank; blue skies be damned

An empty room with a penthouse view

A flash cuts the night in two

Thunder brays, has it been days?

Since you left out of the blue

Tomorrow feels just like hell

I been around enough to tell

That this whole thing was just a fling

Shun the light; back to my cell

You told me each day, you told me you'd stay

You told me in no uncertain way

You told me don't fret - how could you forget?

You told me with tears in your eyes, baby

And I'm not blind, I can see the facts

The heart it wants the very thing it lacks

And so you blazed your way and ran

But the trail you left betrayed your tracks

A new day dawns, sun meets the shore

But I can't seem to sense the colors no more

All I feel is the coming storm

Gathering right outside my door

Cuz you never knew how to treat me

All that you'd do to mislead me

Out of the blue you took it away

Colors bled through - what a wonderful grey

You told me each day, you told me you'd stay

You told me in no uncertain way

You told me don't fret - how could you forget?

You told me with tears in your eyes, baby

You told me each day, you told me you'd stay

You told me in no uncertain way

With tears in your eyes; such a brilliant disguise

And now our perfect sky's torn grey

Desolate room - waste of a view

Tinged a grey, pallorous hue

Tomorrow's pain can still be felt

Damn my heart for loving you

Cuz you never knew how to treat me

All that you'd do to mislead me

Out of the blue you took it away

Colors bled through - what a wonderful grey

You told me each day, you told me you'd stay

You told me in no uncertain way

You told me don't fret - it was no secret

You told me with tears in your eyes, baby

You told me each day, you told me you'd stay

You told me in no uncertain way

With tears in your eyes; such a brilliant disguise

And now our perfect sky's torn grey
