Nickel Creek - Green and gray lyrics
Your rating:
I'm in a room full of people Hanging on one person's breath We would all vote him most likely to be loved to death I hope he still wants it But it might remind him of when, he aimed for the bulls eye and hit it 9 times out of 10. That one time his hand slipped and I saw the dart sail away. I don't know where it landed but I'm guessing between green and gray. Well I thought nothing of it, but it still haunts him like a ghost With all eyes upon him, except two that matter the most. He says, Green is the color that everyone sees all around me. Gray is the color I see around her she's just a blur. The more the crowd cheers the less I can hear and they don't really care what I play. It might be for her but for now it's between green and gray. We payed and we cheered now we're gone and to us that feels right But for him everyone of those evenings turns into a night With another hotel room where he lays awake to pretend that he's doing fine with is notebook and discman for friends He says Green is the color that everyone sees all around me Gray is the color I see around her she's just a blur. Night after night what I hear what I write fills the room and my head starts to sway It might be for her but for now it's between green and gray I want you to love me he whispers unable to speak and he wonders a loud why feelings so strong make the body so weak. Then he awoke. Now he's scared to death somebody heard. If it was you, and you know her please don't say a word.
