Dave Matthews Band – Grey Street lyrics
Look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
Just listens to abuses
And by the kitchen sink
She thinks, "Hey!
What d
I made my own life.
How did it end like this?"
Oh, then the wrongs in her heart fall
And she feels the weight in lies.
And the colors mix together to grey.
Grey Street
Begging now the difference
She prays to God most everynight
Although she swears He doesn't listening
There's hope in her that He just might
She said, "I Pray!" (she said,"I Pray!") (she said,"I Pray!")
"But they fall on deaf ears
Am I supposed to take it on all of myself
To get out of this place?"
And the wrongs in her heart fall
And then she rode the light in
Oh, did they not say "it's over?"
Yet again she sees the pain
And then the colors mix together to grey
On Grey Street
It's all colored in again.
Take what you can from your dreams
Make them real as anything.
It takes the work out of the courage.
She says, "Please!" (she says,"Please!") (she says,"Please!")
"There's someone sleeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
And the end of the world."
And the wrong in her whole plan
Is as hopeless as the day she came
And the man she calls her father
Ignores her and ignores her pain
Now when I walk out in the morning
Into all the sunlight
All the colors mix together to grey
On Grey Street
On Grey Street
It's Grey Street, you go
So, if you don't see your Heaven
Don't convince yourself you're done
Just 'cause the things around you seem heavy
Doesn't mean you can't get off this ground.
And don't be down in the heart now
Move out and, oh, the wait is over
Oh, might notice all your worries
Will move over; yeah, they're light.
And the colors mix together to grey
On Grey Street
On Grey Street
To grey...
Yeah, yeah...
